HOW TO PLAY
1
Players join hands and form a circle around one player standing in the center.

As the marimba music plays, the circle steps together in a simple side-to-side rhythm.
3
The center player performs a short dance move or gesture, which everyone in the circle then imitates together.
4
After a few repetitions, the center player taps someone in the circle to swap places and lead the next move.

The game continues with new leaders taking turns until the music ends.
