Octaband™ Products
The Octaband™ is a playful, interactive
tool for increasing one’s sense of belonging and connection through
movement. The Octaband™ provides a visual representation of each
person as an individual and an integral member of a group. The arms
provide the opportunity to pull, which represents a self that is separate
and autonomous, while at the same time maintaining group cohesion.
Like its namesake, the octopus, the Octaband™ is very adaptable,
squeezing into smaller spaces by rolling the band around one’s
arms several times, and expanding into larger spaces by pulling on
the arms.
It is the uniqueness of each one of us and our connection to a larger
whole that is manifested in the image of the Octaband™ - a whole
that is greater than the sum of its parts, a whole that bubbles up
with synergy.
The Octaband™ is made of 80% nylon and 20% spandex and is
washable.
