Jump


Jump is a team building ice breaker activity that takes about five minutes. Delegates must stand up from their seats and follow the facilitator’s instructions.

When the facilitator says “jump left”, everybody jumps left, when he says “jump right”, everybody jumps right, then jump forward and then jump backward. In the second round, the level of difficulty increases, and the delegates must say the same as the facilitator is saying but do the opposite.

In the third and final round the delegates say the opposite of what the facilitator is saying but do the same.

This usually results in confusion and laughter by the delegates.
