In order to create better interconnection within the participants and to encourage caring for others among the group, you can call the “buddy”.

A buddy is a participant that will take care of another participant. When needed, he/she will make an effort to be available to help his/her partner, for example to express feelings after a moving session, debrief, release tensions….

To create pairs, you can ask the participants to walk and move in the living room randomly while a song is playing. When the song stops, they have to go the nearest person and form pairs: their partner will be their “buddy” as long as the seminar goes.
