ENERGIZERS

Creating connections, laughing, having fun, boosting energy... these are not just for the brick-and-mortar classroom--even more when we engage with virtual lessons in largely the same way every time, having fun and energizing the group is especially important!
Good energizers get everyone participating, involve some level of physical movement, and are FUN! We think you'll see more participation, more retention, and more connection-building if you sprinkle energizers throughout your lessons.

Energizers can be as simple as everyone dancing along to a choreographed dance routine, 5 minutes to put on a costume, or a quick round of charades.
