Engagement
Go Bananas
This high-energy and boisterous stimulant is both fast-paced and physically engaging, with a healthy dose of silliness that quickly ignites any group. Participants enthusiastically repeat a simple chant, gradually increasing in volume and intensity. By the end, the group is fully charged, shouting and jumping with excitement.
Workshop steps
Begin the energizer by forming a circle with the group.
Everyone in the group should squat down and start murmuring "go bananas - b-a-n-a-n-a-s". Gradually repeat this phrase louder and louder while slowly standing up. Eventually, everyone should be jumping with excitement and shouting: "GO BANANAS - B-A-N-A-N-A-S!"
Revise the text to maintain the structure, while making it straightforward and easy to follow.
