My friend invited me to a party and we're all supposed to do Schnitzelbank there. I learned it back in elementary school, but somehow I forgot how to do the movements and what you're supposed to shout. Can someone explain that to me?
In Schnitzelbank, you alternate between making hand movements on your thighs and clapping your hands, while everyone shouts "Schnitzelbank" together - the movements are basically always the same, just rhythmic back and forth, and the fun is really about everyone keeping the same pace together and nobody falling out of rhythm.
That's actually less of a single sequence of moves and more like a rhythm game that looks different from region to region. The standard version goes like this: you clap on your thighs, then clap your hands together, then left thigh, right thigh, hands again - and you do the whole thing in rhythm while everyone's shouting "Schnitzelbank." Some versions have extra moves like snapping or pointing, but the basic pattern is actually pretty simple once you've done it a couple times. The main thing is just keeping the rhythm and not falling out of sync - it gets faster and faster.
