The Rules of the Twister Moves Game
Welcome to the Twister Moves game, where the goal is to bust a move on a colorful mat!
I invite you to learn the rules and get ready to have a blast with this exciting game.
How to Play:
First, make sure you have a friend to play with. This game is all about having fun together!
Next, set up the mat. Lay it flat on the floor and make sure there’s plenty of space around it.
Now, it’s time to choose your mode:
Freestyle Mode: In this mode, you can create your own dance moves. Just follow the lights and dance to the beat!
Run the Spots Mode: This mode is all about speed and agility. Follow the lights and step on the spots as quickly as you can!
Classic Twister Mode: This is the mode that started it all. Spin the spinner and get ready to contort your body to match the colors!
Once you’ve chosen your mode, it’s time to get spinning!
Spin the spinner to determine your move. It could be a hand or foot, and it could land on any color on the mat.
Here’s where things get interesting: you have to follow two cues at once!
For example, if the spinner lands on “left foot” and the light is on “red,” you have to place your left foot on a red spot.
Keep following the instructions from the spinner and the lights. As the moves pile up, things might get a little tricky!
The game continues until someone can’t complete a move or falls over. Don’t worry, though – falling over just adds to the fun!
That’s it – you now know the rules of the Twister Moves game! I encourage you to give it a try and let loose on the mat!
Remember, the most important thing is to have fun and enjoy the dance!

Alright, listen up and get ready to groove! I’m here to tell you all about this awesome game called Twister Moves. It’s like a dance party, where you have to follow the moves that the DJs give you. The coolest part is, if you’re the only one who gets the moves right, you’re the winner!
Getting Set Up
First things first, let’s get everything ready. You’ll need 4 Twister Moves mats for this game. Lay them out on the floor so that they form a square shape. Make sure the purple spots are in the center.
Now, here’s the important part: find a nice, flat, hard surface to play on. Carpeted areas won’t work well for this game, so avoid those. And don’t forget to leave some space between each mat. You don’t want to accidentally bump into anything while you’re busting out your moves!

Alright, let’s get in position and make sure we have enough space to do our moves. We need to stand on our foot spaces and lift our arms out to the sides, reaching towards the players next to us.
We should be able to touch fingertips with the players on our right and left. Take a look at Figure 1 to see how to get ready.

When you’re playing, it’s best to wear shoes that have flat or low heels and rubber soles. That way, you can avoid slipping and falling. It’s important to remember to be careful and not push yourself too hard, as some dance moves can be quite challenging. And of course, try to avoid goofing around while playing this game. Now, let’s get started!

- First, choose one of the 3 Twister Moves CDs, excluding the Nick and Aaron Carter CD, and insert it into your CD player. It doesn’t matter which CD you pick.
- If you haven’t played Twister Moves before, start with Track 1 for a quick introduction.
- If you have played before, you can skip the introduction.
- Each mat is labeled with a number from 1 to 4. To get started, choose a mat. This will be your player number. Stand on your mat with your feet on the designated foot spaces. Make sure you are facing your friends.
Let’s Get Moving!
Today, we have two DJs, a guy, and a girl. They will be calling out a series of dance moves for you to follow. The guy will call out moves for your left hand or foot, while the girl will call out moves for your right.
If you forget which move to do, just take a look at the feet on your mat for a reminder. Easy, right? Alright, let’s go over it again: guy – left; girl – right! Got it? Awesome!
Hey, Listen Up!
Okay, so here’s the deal. Before we start busting out some moves, let’s take a moment to listen, alright? The DJs will call out a whole set of moves first. This is your chance to hear them without having to do them just yet. So, pay close attention and keep these things in mind:
- When a DJ says a color, you gotta move your left or right foot onto a matching color circle. For example, let’s say the guy says “purple” and the girl says “green”. So, what you do is put your left foot on the purple spot and your right foot on the green spot. Got it? Good. Oh, and one important thing – you’ll never be asked to step on a spot that another player is already on. Safety first!
- Now, if a DJ tells you to do something with your hands, like “point”, just do the command with the hand that matches the DJ who made the call. Simple as that!
Getting Started with Twister Moves
Hey there! So you’re ready to dive into the world of Twister Moves? Awesome! Let me walk you through how to play this super fun game.
Listen Up!
First things first, let’s go over some special instructions. The DJ’s might give you some unique rules at the beginning of the set. For example, they might say that whenever they shout “blue,” you need to step onto the blue spot on the mat of the player to your left. Pay close attention to these special instructions – they’re important!
Time to Get Moving!
Once the DJ’s finish explaining the moves, you’ll hear four short beats. This is your cue to start moving! When the music starts, you have to do the moves called out by the DJ’s. Remember, all players do the moves at the same time, so watch out for others and avoid bumping into them.
Did you manage to make it through the Twister Moves? Way to go!
Now, when it comes to playing Twister Moves, you have three options: You can choose to “Take the Challenge,” “Practice the Moves,” or “Move On” to a new set of moves.
Take the Challenge
Are you ready? Get ready! Once you press PLAY on your CD player, the fun begins! Just follow the commands and keep an eye out for the other players.
- If you do the moves correctly, keep going!
- If you make a mistake, you’re out.
The players who are out of the challenge become the judges for the remaining players. The game continues until there’s only one player left – the ultimate winner!
Remember: If there’s a disagreement, pause the CD and let everyone vote. Majority rules!
Let’s Practice the Moves!
Hey there, it’s time to get grooving! If you want to repeat the same awesome moves, just press that handy-dandy repeat or previous track button on your trusty CD player. Practice these moves as many times as you want. You’ve got this!
Ready for More?
You’ve nailed those moves, and now you’re ready for a fresh set of grooves! Let your CD player do its thing and move on to the next track. Get ready to show off your skills and take on these brand new moves. Show us what you’ve got!
You’re Absolutely Crushing It!
I’m halfway through the CD and the DJs are telling me to come up with my own dance move. Well, I’m up for the challenge! If you need help coming up with a move, check out the suggestions at the back of these instructions.
I suggest creating a move that keeps your feet on the mat and involves only moving the rest of your body. You can lean, bend, swing your arms, and so on. Keep it short and simple, and remember to pay attention to the other players. From now on, if the DJs call out a player’s number, we all have to do that player’s move.
Now, let’s talk about playing Twister Moves alone. You can still practice some awesome dance moves by setting up just one mat and following the DJs’ instructions. If the DJs tell you to step onto another player’s mat, just get creative and make it look really cool!
Hey there! Let’s dive in and have some fun completing as many sets as we can. Your “score” is how many tracks you successfully make it through without making any mistakes. So, if you can make it to track 23 without messing up, your score will be 23.
Sessions
Welcome to Twister Moves, where the fun never stops! We have three amazing types of sessions for you to enjoy – Standard Sessions, DJ Mixes, and Super Sessions.
Standard Sessions: In these sessions, the talented DJs will guide you through each move. You just have to follow their lead and dance to the rhythm of the music. As you progress, the moves will become more challenging, keeping you on your toes!
DJ Mixes: Get ready to groove to the tunes of our DJs’ personal favorites! DJ Mixes are specially curated music mixes that will make your feet move and your body groove.
Super Sessions: Super Sessions are an exciting combination of four Standard Sessions. First, you’ll complete a Standard Session by following the DJs’ instructions. Then, they will take some moves from the first session and combine them with new moves to create a second Standard Session. Once you master that, it’s time for the third session, and so on!
Finally, after all the sessions, we’ll put them all together to create a final “Super Session”. How did you do? Did you stay in sync and follow the rhythm?
Variations
Line Dance
For the “Line Dance” variation, arrange your mats side by side instead of in a square.
Party Moves
If you and your friends all have Twister Moves, you can combine your mats to create a larger “Party Moves” game.
If multiple players have the same number, each one of you can show off “your own moves” and let the group choose which one to use. If you’re not sure what move to do, take a look at the examples on the back of these instructions for some inspiration.
