THE LATIN QUARTER
Fiesta! In this four-part challenge, celebrating various cultures and festivities from Latin America, participants utilize different skill sets, in an attempt to take home the gold. So you think you can dance? We’ll find out in the salsa dance-off. How low can you go? We’ll find out in our limbo contest. Yea, we know that’s Caribbean, but let’s not split hairs. Do you have what it takes to be a mixologist at Brazil’s famed Carnival? We’ll find out in our mojito mix-off. You want to be Latin America’s next top chef? We’ll see if you have what it takes in the salsa-making challenge. Ready, aim, swing! Let’s see how well you do hitting that piñata, while wearing a blindfold. Of course, nothing is ever as simple as it seems, so get ready to live la vida loca! Ole!
The Experience At A Glance
After the formation of teams and some spirited activities to get the energy flowing, teams are guided from station to station, where they compete in specific mental, minimally-physical, and creative challenges.
With limited time at each station, collaboration is essential. Using only the tools provided, minimal instruction, and a lack of recipes, teams must work together to complete the tasks at hand before the sound of the horn, and its rotation to the next quadrant.
While themed music pumps up the atmosphere, your participants will slide to the right, slide to the left, and crisscross with collaboration, creativity, and out-of-the-office fun!
For those who prefer to not include alcohol, you may cut it, completely, if you wish, and we may provide an alternative “fourth quarter” activity. The other option is to make “virgin” mojitos. The choice is yours.
For those who wish to have more of a “networking” experience, depending upon overall group size, we are often able to incorporate “mix and match,” where participants start off on one team and unbeknownst to them, periodically change, throughout, ensuring they work with a variety of their colleagues.
While the final scores are tabulated, participants have an opportunity to sample other teams’ salsa and mojitos, as they wait, with bated breath, for the announcement of who will take home the golden jalapeño! The Latin Quarter is sure to spice up your team!
“Matt is terrific! He is professional, energetic, and collaborative during the "business phase" leading up to an event. His programs are creative and exciting. Highly recommend!”
