Lap circle

A lap circle (also known as a Lap Sit or lap game) is an entertaining exercise in cooperation, trust and coordination.

A lap circle is formed by a number of people (the more the better) standing in a circle, shoulder to shoulder, all facing towards the center. The next step is for everyone to take a quarter turn to the left (or right) and then on a given command everyone sits on the lap of the person behind them. The end result is everyone is supporting someone and everyone is being supported by another.
