Swords and spears

Aim of practice: warm up
Number of participans: 4+
Time: 10 mins

Participants are spread across the space quite evenly, moving in five speeds, changed by the leader (ultra-fast, fast, normal, slow and bizoku (so slow that it’s invisible). At any point the leader can yell “swords” or “spears”. The participants draw an imaginary sword or form their grip around the imaginary matter of a spear, attempting to kill whoever is the closest to them. Whoever survives puts their sword back in the sheath, dissolves the spear and goes back to walking. The hit participants die with pantomimic accuracy of the hit and physical damage. After death and complete relaxation they go back to the game, getting up in the pace that is currently on.
