What’s Involved?

This meeting icebreaker is ideal for getting a conference off to a fantastic and positive start.

The Boomwhacker is a hollow, plastic, musical tube that comes in five different colours, each with its own distinctive pitch, which produces a different sound when struck on the hand (or any other part of the body!)

Within minutes, our facilitators will create a musical orchestra in the room by getting your team to recreate rhythms. Watch the energy levels rise, and your employees become uplifted!

Optional Activities

Want to do a longer icebreaker session? No problem! From New Zealand All Black Haka to African-style body percussion, we have many options to keep your team entertained and energised.

At some events, 10 – 30 employees get up on stage to join Mark Walker and his drum assistants. They are taught a simple rhythm on the drums - while the remaining employees learn everything from body percussion rhythms to tribal chant and African-style dances.

These extended Boomwhacker sessions make for an energetic, exciting, and uplifting end to an icebreaker activity.
