Hey, we're here learning some imporv warm ups today, and the first one that we're going
to show you guys how to play is called "Alphabet Circle." To play this warm up, and it's a
pretty simple warm up, you're going to have your team stand in a circle and then we're
going to pass the focus from player to player as the team collectively recites the alphabet.
Although this seems simple at first, with a large team and if you continually increasing
the speed at which you pass the alphabet around, you'll find that it's a fun exercise. So Daniel
and I are going to go ahead and demonstrate. Keep in mind it's just the two of us, but
your entire team is going to play in a circle, which will add to the difficulty level. So
let's just go ahead and start. A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. Q.
R. Eventually the focus will be passed around to everyone in the group. The game is more
fun if the focus doesn't just go around in a circle, but if you throw the energy around
loosely. The strength of this warm up is that you are working together in a group mind,
you are collectively reciting the alphabet, you're learning to share focus. I think that
once you guys play it a couple of times you'll get the hang of it. It's pretty straight forward,
and I think you guys will have a blast.
