Bodies & Trees

This workshop is about experiencing movement co-created between body and environment through climbing and dancing with trees. We will explore the evolutionary and biomechanical story of the 5 forms of arboreal locomotion: Quadrupedal, Quadrumanus, Bipedal, Brachiation and Clinging/Leaping. How these patterns helped shape us from tree dwelling mammals to primates, to the primates that ventured and stayed on the ground, will give a different appreciation of the bigger picture of human movement. The trees will also be our dance partners and inspiration as we touch, look, and listen to their shapes, songs and wisdom as a source of creativity for improvisation.

Harmonious Movement - SERIES of classes

This series of classes will include controlled movements for awareness and retuning, coordinative movement patterns to explore rhythm, musicality and how you learn and sequencing ideas on how to cultivate your own practice once you leave with the material. The core of the practice will be around coordinative movement patterns (arm swinging and dynamic footwork from simple to complex), inspired by Ben’s teachings from Fighting Monkey, universal human patterns of striking, throwing tribal/folk dance and many sports that involve the transfer of energy via weight-shifting, rotation and balance.

WILD WOODS

MOVEMENT ↔️ BUSHCRAFT ↔️ NATURE⁠


Dissolving the borders between movement, natural movement, bushcraft, wilderness skills is one of our intentions here. It is all human activity, we are interested in honouring skills that were once very important to being human and being connected to our outdoor environment. And whilst you may not technically NEED these skills to operate in today’s modern world, perhaps they have something for you, a connection to your wilder self, other humans and your habitat that can be difficult to find for most.⁠
