Choose a ball; play with it making sure your entire body is involved.
Create a regular, repetitive, rhythmic action and sound to accompany your ball.

Find a partner, continue playing but observe every detail of your partner's movements and sound.
"Exchange Balls" - adopt that person's movement and sound exactly.
Find another partner - repeat exchange
