HOW TO PLAY
1

Two teams line up facing each other while the rest of the group claps and sings a driving rhythm.

2

One player steps forward and performs a quick sequence of footwork, jumps, or leg movements in time with the beat.

3

A player from the opposing team must immediately step up and match or top that same movement before the rhythm resets.

4

Any player who hesitates, breaks the rhythm, or fails to copy the move correctly loses that exchange for their team.

5

Teams keep sending forward new challengers, escalating the difficulty of the footwork as the game goes on.

6

The team that wins the most individual exchanges by the end of the session is celebrated as the round's champion.
