Musical Improv Games - Moving and Emoting

Good for:

Getting people moving and singing unselfconsciously

Participants walk or move around a space while using the voice.
A musician plays or background music plays
There really are no rules for what the improvisers should be doing, as long as they are moving and making a noise.
This exercise can also be done using words.
Everyone in the room will be singing/speaking at the same time which is fine.
Each improviser should be exploring their own environment and not be too swayed by what other people are doing.
The exercise should end loudly, both physically and vocally.

As you walk around the space, you should try to express some thoughts that are in your mind as you move.
If you do feel like using words, just let them come and try not to think about them too much.
If you find that you are losing emotion or tune at the expense of telling a funny story then dispense with words altogether and just go back to lalalas.
In terms of your physicality, again try not to think too much. If you can, try and find a balance between moving freely and subconsciously and also making deliberate choices.
As this is still part of the warming up part of your class, this is also a good time to explore your range. How low or high are the notes that you can reach and what do they help you to express emotionally?
