BODILY ATTUNEMENT
Claymotion™ Team-Building Play Kit
The transformative powers of clay have been known since ancient times. For tens of thousands of years, people have scooped clay out of hillsides, squeezed it between their fingers, swirled it on wheels and formed it into dolls, bowls, jewelry, musical instruments, bricks, even writing tablets. When thinned with water, clay becomes a medium for painting. When painted or smeared onto the body, mud and clay can impart mineral benefits, open pores and draw out impurities as they dry, leaving us feeling relaxed, cleansed and ready to face a new day.
While clay masks can be a valuable part of a private regular cleansing ritual, and sharing a mud bath with a friend or partner can improve relaxation properties, we at Your Search Within believe that clay can also enhance group dynamics and bring people together on a larger scale. That’s why we have worked with the creative folks at the Invidulence Corporate Dynamics Consulting Group to develop the Claymotion Team-Building Play Kit.
This kit comes with 20 pounds of mineral-rich, fast-drying clay and a 10 x 12 foot canvas mat. Up to five friends, family members or coworkers per kit gather on the mat, scoop up handfuls of clay and express your emotions through the manipulation of one of earth’s most elemental natural products across your own and each other’s bodies. The slippery clay is just firm enough to allow you to build up shapes and mounds, and you can draw pictures or words with the provided wooden ClaymoStylus. Press the clay through the ClaymoSieve to create spaghetti-like strands of clay to create “hair.”
The high moisture content of the clay allows it to air-dry quickly, so after you play, you and your team can rest on the canvas mat and air dry, allowing the clay to draw out impurities from your skin. Finally, use the ClaymoBrush and the Claymo Cranny Excavator tool to brush away the dried clay, leaving you feeling invigorated. Follow with a group dip in a lake, a communal wash in an outdoor shower or a team visit to a sauna. After sweating away the last remnants of the clay, use the provided strips of birch bark to scrape each other’s skin clean. You’ll smell as fresh as a Finnish birch forest and feel cleansed, refreshed and closer to every member of your team. It’s a team-building exercise you’ll never forget.
