in the past episodes, this experiment attracted 30 like-minded movement enthusiast. A setting was organized where we, as friends, can be, meet and play. A space where there is no difference between teachers and students. Sharing tricks for the future and insights from the past. Enjoying 3 meals a day and helping out with things that need to be done in an organic manner. Where having no agenda results in receiving impressive pop-up workshops being offered by unexpected talents.
What
With a group of maximum 30 participants of all levels, this weekend aims to make you smile.
A long weekend of body movement and fun, refining known skills, learning new ones, training, relaxing, working out, slowing down, giving a massage or receiving attention, chilling in the sauna or jacuzzi, indulging the vegetarian food, appreciating the simple lifestyle.
Being together as a group, and think and speak about the future that lies ahead. To exchange ideas that might help other acrobats whether that be in their acro or in their general life. Or to just hang by the camp fire and enjoy the wine that you brought yourself.
While some of you might want to throw in a workshops of any kind, demo your latest trick, impress others with a song or poem, some choose to just be present and unwind. Letting it all happen as the weekend unfolds.
