TribeWire Welcomes Back- Tom Weksler & Roser Tutusaus for

a one of a kind immersion in Nosara Costa Rica! 

By integrating Movement Archery, The Natures of Partnering & Zen Acrobatics over the course of a 7 day immersion - they will present a dynamic movement series designed to dive deep into the work , spark and support ultimate creativity.

​

Movement Archery: Tom's signature movement series includes creative warm ups, floor work that blends the likes of  Animal Kingdom, Capoeira, Gymnastics, Tae Kwon Do, Parkour, Brazillian Jiujitsu and Bboying. The “Archery” practice is Tom’s sincere attempt to create a practice of movement which lies in the space between fight and gestures-free expression.  Upon practicing Archery one can feel either like he or she is involved in a very skillful combat or in a passionate dance full of risks and traps. It is important to note that the name “Archery” ultimately holds nothing behind it as it constantly changes and flows into the shape the practitioners make up according to their needs and passions.

​

The Natures of Partnering:  If dancing alone is a relationship with imagination, dancing with a partner is a relationship with reality. We believe that these two skills are fundamental and relevant for each other but if we practice one without consciously looking for the creative connections with the other, it is hard to sense and experience the actual benefit. In that sense, virtuosity and skill will appear when the line between imagination and reality slightly fades away. And then, solo dance and partner dance becomes inseparable. 

​

The Zen Acrobatics approach has developed from the urge to look for freedom in movement.

The main goal is to find a movement quality that supports simple actions like walking and running, as well as acrobatic feats without a difference in effort or muscular usage.

In order to do this, the search in this workshop is for high levels of awareness and precision, to allow the body to react quickly and intuitively to changes in skeletal stress, and to maintain flow without unnecessary tension.

In classical acrobatic disciplines – preparation, climax and landing are being treated as completely different aspects while usually one is more important than the other.

In Zen Acrobatics the practitioner aspires to transform all 3 stages into one motion that can ultimately connect to any other type of movement. Sounds of take-offs and landings, placement of eye-focus and optimal breath for each element are all being covered aside from the anatomical Instructions, "safe" broken down patterns of risky moves and basic conditioning.

The acrobatic training allows the mover to tune into a 'mind-quality' which is usually present only in extreme sports or Full – Contact sports. The mover becomes animalistic and functional, and while attempting complicated feats he turns on 'survival instincts' which allows him to reflect on his movement from an entirely different point of view.
