Object Manipulation 101 | Flow LAB Session

6 Mar 10:30

Labracadabra

Have you been wanting to spin circus props but not know where to start?
There are so many of them it is hard to pick one : there are pois, rope dart, hoops, single staff, double staff, contact staff, clubs and torches, buugeng, contact balls and more !
Want to find out which makes your heart flow?

Then this LAB Session is for you!
Wiki says :
"It is a form of dexterity play or performance in which one or more people physically interact with one or more objects."

To us, Object Manipulation is the art of handling props in a playful way that makes pretty shapes in the air. Once enough skills are gathered and practiced, it will start complementing the way you move and you will enter a meditative state of Flow in which the prop becomes your intimate dance partner.

So come find your flow with this LAB Session where you'll be given a chance to test different props to find out which suits your style, and learn the foundations of spinning, contact and tossing.

We will start with a quick introduction about all the differents types of props as well as ways to play with them, and you will have all the opportunities to try them all throughout the Session.
Then we'll go over the bases of movement and handling to give you the tools and method to build your muscle memory towards dexterity.

At the end of the session you will choose your favourite prop or two, and we can establish a course for your training if you want to pursue the practice.

You can then either get a handmade set at our #madeatLABra Shop (subject to stock availability) or come build your own out of recycled materials on Sunday during our "Make your Prop | Makers LAB session" .
