Activities

​Trust Walks:

  • Divide students into pairs. One person is the Leader, the other is the Follower.

  • The follower closes their eyes while the leader takes them on a journey.

  • The leader is responsible for the follower’s safety.

  • The Follower rests their hand on the back of the Leader’s hand.

  • How can the Leader communicate direction, level, speed?

  • After a pre-determined time, the Leader and Follower switch roles.

​Colombian Hypnosis:

  • A trust/focus game also played in pairs. 

  • The Leader holds an open hand, fingers upward, about 2-3 inches from her partner`s face. 

  • She then starts moving her hand about slowly, while her partner tries to keep his face at exactly the same distance from her hand, like her hand is pulling of pushing his face about.

  • Switch sides and partners after a couple of minutes.

Debrief: 

What is the Leader’s responsibility? What does it feel like to be the Follower? The Leader?

What choices can the follower make to stay safe?
