Get to know each other: Start with a small energizer and a name game to break the ice and build connections.
Warm-up & stretching: Kateryna loves stretching, and we all need it—especially after a long workday
Main Activities:
- Mirroring Partner: Participants will stand in front of each other and mirror each other’s moves to build trust and awareness.
- Shadowing Exercise: One person will act as the shadow of another, synchronizing rhythm and movements while exploring timing, connection, and non-verbal leadership.
- Pantomime Storytelling: As the final activity, groups will prepare and perform short pantomime scenes, such as Snow White in a Western Movie or etc.. This fun and creative exercise, mainly people like it.
Reflection time: We will conclude the workshop by sitting together in a circle, sharing thoughts, and discussing what participants enjoyed most—in a light, relaxed, and fun atmosphere.
