Hand up and when circle, lays her hand on her partner?s hand. - Yes - or nodding the head - Yes - or leaning forwards - Yes- In that you try to make movements to the music? If the person is very physically handicapped then try to at least move the body or hands or head. If they are not so physically handicapped then they can move their feet, too or with the help of their partner leading move together.

Helmut Hammermüller: I came to this group through a joint activity for a week with a different club for the handicapped. Some from the Ich bin OK group were also there and I like it so much I thought I should also start something.
