HOW TO PLAY
1

Players form a circle around one player standing in the middle, who calls out the game's rhythmic chant.

2

As the chant is repeated, players in the circle clap and step in time, gradually speeding up the tempo.

3

The center player points suddenly to another player, who must perform a quick dance move or gesture before the beat resets.

4

Any player who freezes, hesitates, or copies a move already used swaps places with the center player.

5

The game continues with the new center player choosing a fresh chant or variation.
