Musical Thetare: "Group exercises"

Every Monday we do some exercises to warm up and to make as ready for the whole lesson. The exercises call "Cat" . We start from the floor with basic stretches to move you to the next level when you have to move all your body around. This exercise we repeat twice : first we do from floor to high level and after we swop from high level(high energy) to the floor (low energy) and a bit relax. After that we play some group games like:


1) Play with the ball in the circle ,before throw you have to say someone's name and throw.
2) Again we used the same game and we played with the same rules but without calling someone's name. Also we had to keep the same energy as the ball as was throw to us . We had to catch the ball quietly as well to do not hear the catch sound.
3) Another game was playing with the plastic cup in the circle. Everyone had to hit once the cup and try to keep cup in the air.
4)And the last one (new one, which we did yesterday) is when we are in the circle and everyone clicks the bit with the fingers and someone say one word for example : "cow" and another person have to say some word similar to the subject which person gave it before ; in this example will be :"milk" or something similar to this.After that everyone repeat this two words like: "cow-milk" and we sing some melody like:" Na na na " and the person which had to answer is start the next subject. And over again and again.


My comments:


I really like this lesson ,the most games than the warm up (Cat exercises)which we always do on this lesson. I really enjoy the third and  forth game , they are fun and everyone gets the most energy there than in the rest games. All games are useful each on their own way. They teach us how to work in the group and as one group. Also they teach us how to listen each other and follow another person at the same time. The are forcing us to be focus all the time because if we not,we automatically lose the game. Also the cat exercises are useful because they warm up our body really good and each week I can see that those exercise become easier for me than they were before. I'm getting stronger.
