- Each line leader turns and faces their squad line.
- When the music starts, they will lead their line in a specific warm-up activity, such as a hamstring stretch.
- Each group leader will have from 20-40 seconds to lead their line.
- When you say switch, the line leader jogs to the rear of the line and the next person in line comes forward and faces their line ready to lead a new warm-up exercise.
- This continues until the song is over or everybody has had a turn leading.
Strategies For Diverse Learners: Ask the class beforehand to name all of the warm-up exercises they can think of. (Ex: stretching, jumping, calf raises, shadow boxing, tae-bo's, deep breaths, push-ups etc.)
