eek

I really wish I could.

That sounds an awesome weekend. These guys are all very good at being silly with sticks and making them move in wiggly ways.

I reccommend that anyone who can go to this, does, as you will not go home disapointed.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

rah! biggrin

this is like getting antony gatto, jason garfield, jay gilligan and stefan sing all running a ball juggling workshop at the same time in the same place.

if i could use a stick, i wouldn't miss this for the world...

i'm guessing a basic grasp of single stick, double stick and contact stick techniques are a prerequisite?

Contact without dance is like sex without wiggling.
A) it does feel as good
B) it does not look as good on film

MY test of proficiency is as follows:

you can spin a staff about you a bit

you know what contact is.

you're prepared to learn.

you've picked up two staffs once or twice and gone.... "hmmm"

basically, if you're mad enough to want to pay laods of dosh to come and learn from us that much, then you probably like stick enough to do this workshop.


so my list so far is:

meghan
queen
declan
step
lavatwiglet smile
strugz
aidan
lisa(faberge) ???
durbs ???
lisa(2bams) ???
coleyouth ???
clare(fpoise) ???

if i get confirmation from all those on this list and three of the question marked ones, (or three others) then i can start booking things.

final confirmation of the workshop will take place when i get Knox's movements confirmed by a tokyo theme park. tho i'm sure i could line up an approving ninja if he can't make it.

much smiling huggery

i doubt it

there will prob be no tests at all

more like staged workshos, so one for total beginners, one for intermediates and one for advanced

with prob play sessions in the middle of these so you can ask questions......

it will be really relaxed, with good, well nice teachers

come along, it will be worth it just to watch i think biggrin
