[Quote] Ronan's workshops

2) Hybrids

Same and split time, switching which hand isolations, realising that hybrids can go anywhere you make an isolation. *These are different hybrids to those in Olives class - please ask on the forum for a direct response from the teachers* [/Quote]

I'll ask



And another question...in the price are included workshop or there are additional costs?



Thanx in advance!!!

ok, Q1:
olives hybrids are polyrhythmic, ronans are unirhythmic.

more precisely, the word hybrid is defined something like: 'mixing two types of movement'

ronans are normal + iso (a la andy house)
olives are spin + anti spin polyrhythms.

i hope that helps at least a little. i'll try to either get the difference posted, or let them explain better (on that shiny new forum )

Q2: there are no additional costs... you'll have to pay for transport, and most of your food, of course, but we will not ask anything more than the entry fee

Holistic Spinner (I hope)

Posted: 21st Jan 2007
Cool!
Yep I think I have understand well enought the diffrence!

One proposal... a discussion on "poi-tomorrow" to plan the last day...what do you think about?

oh btw on my way to booking, i unawares ran into this horrific grammatically-challenged bit on the UberParis info page:
Full Price (on door)

and i just couldn't go on - it crashed my browser like only micro$oft could

i mean, on door? wtf? Or is this another silly islander thing??

it's a british thing: you pay on the door. what is it for you amero-europeans?



i like it Accaio; i'll be compiling a list of 'other stuff' that will hopefully get fitted in, somewhere...

We Aussies understand either cos we are cool multicultural adaptive sort of creatures. But *on the door* sounds posher cos it's like Rob talks. Cos he's well posh.

Indeed, congrats on the site, Rob, well done. Gotta love the history page

rob
as i plan to come too meet people and play rather than to experience workshops,will there be an area for playing and burnining at night???

Posted: 23rd Jan 2007
there is a park just next to the venue, and a much bigger one (the champs de mars) about 5 minutes away, where there will almost certainly be play ing on the friday and sunday nights. (or at another venue, cunningly revealed by the people who actually live in paris ) on the saturday there will be a large fire party, hosted by BCC.

i'm NOT POSH

incidentally, here's a list of the workshops we have so far. more to be added:





Olive's workshops



Staffs:

1) Crosses and multi-stickery

How to handle & transfer cross. How to shape geometry with more than 2 staffs

Multi staff & double-cross manipulation: application to dual-plane isolation (having two staffs isolated like with doubles and the two others spinning a standard doubles pattern) & crossers .. and maybe a few throws.



2) Doubles 1-beats

People usually forgot to use 1 beats which are easy to turn around and move with.

This workshop is here to cover that gap, and the different ways to grip a staff to make single beats: How to make continuous 1 beat spinning in wall-plane, side plane and practically everywhere. Application to crossers, walking on a line & further on to Nick's "circling circles"



Poi:

3) Hybrid & circling circles

Being able to do something totally different with right & left hand, and its application to Nick's "circling circles" & continuous warping/unwarping, and walking on a line.

Having one hand doing a different driving style to the other (where 'style' means pendulum, spin, giant, semi-isolated, isolated). This definition of hybridness implies/underlies poly-rhythm



Rob's workshops



1) Poi: Airwraps

Theory, placement, discussion, variety. This will also have some tangliness in it. Designed toward those who can already airwrap, but basic wraps will be taught.



2) Anything: The Workshop Workshop

A workshop in how to prepare for a workshop.

OR

Something else entirely, but non spinning based ;o)



Also, at some point over the weekend I will chair a discussion about the future of Uberevents.



Ronan's workshops



Poi:



1) Stretching circles

Moving circles in lines to create spin + antispin patterns.



2) Hybrids

Same and split time, switching which hand isolations, realising that hybrids can go anywhere you make an isolation. *These are different hybrids to those in Olives class - please ask on the forum for a direct response from the teachers*



3) Throws

To and from anywhere.



4) Antispin & spin + lines

Moving through patterns and direction. Changing to create new patterns, and less sense.



Ros' workshops



Anything:



1) Performance Games

Games and exercises designed to develop essential performance skills including timing, awareness, teamwork, anticipation and audience awareness. Will make you concentrate, focus, giggle, work together and balance things on your head.



2) Chance!

An fun way of developing sequences, finding new combinations and playing with unusual links between moves.



3) Routine Building

One of the most successful Uber-workshops, based on a concept by Manu Laude. Creating individual/group routines over a couple of hours by learning a basic set of movements and developing them with your own style. The workshop finishes with a show for all those not sensible enough to have done the workshop.



Meg's workshops



1) Double Staff: Contact Doubles.

Staff on Staff Contact style doubles. Teaching the fundamentals of this style, plus various other contact doubles patterns most of them very old school, some of them very difficult.



2) Single Staff: Making contact look better.

Discussing some theory of Contact Staff, and learning how much extra movement you can put in while still successfully completing the movement. Adding character to your tricks and working on good footwork.



3) Double Staff: Inside Planes.

Short staffs! Inside planes, inversions, horizontal, inside anti-spin and isolation, and other tomfoolery that you can only do with short doubles. (1.2m is my maximum length, 1m or less is good if you have short arms, or are short, or just want to make it all easier.)



4) Anything: learning theory.

How to learn more efficiently, easily, and with the best technique. This workshop will start with some obvious (to me) advice about how to make learning easier. It will cover more sutble and unobvious tips and then onto more specific techniques and ways to structure your practice. Then evolve into a sharing of techniques and question answering session. This is general advice and can be applied to any prop. (And it was all from different sources, some juggling, some spinning, some music etc.)



5) Video: Video making workshop.

How to make and edit videos. Video camera, cables, tape types, transferring to computer, composing shots, locations, editing, programs, software. hardware.



Meast's workshops



Staff:



1) double staff antispin/isolation



2) contact staff



3) double contact staff
