DESCRIPTION
“I change and the world changes within me
The world changes and I change with it”
I am stable through this dynamic normality,
I am formed through ongoing interactions.
We invite the courageous athletes, poets, movers, artists, healers
to test, discuss, experience sparks of new creative impulses
that embrace and push the boundaries of human cognitive and physical limits
to the edge of impossible.
What we’ll work on:
In order to create a practice
to cope with pressure, competition and uncertainty
of our everyday life and achieve goals
without depleting our energy,
we need to abandon prescribed, static
and error free systems, based on
rules, protocols and skills.
Instead we must move towards a life supporting practice
that does not describe an end product
but principles of learning, observation, feedback and correction
to meet and explore the world through flexible actions of communication
During 6 extraordinary days we will investigate
how to create a practice capable of reshaping itself :
1/ through understanding changing relations
and how those changes affect our balance.
2/ through perceiving important features
comprising both physical and social dynamics
3/ through selecting the appropriate actions
to increase our functionality and opportunities in the life we live.
Why?
Because we have desires and dreams
and we must find ways to accomplish them
And because that is not easy,
we need to know what to do
when we do not know what to do.

Tyršův dům / Michnův Palác (website)
Michnův palác (Michna Palace) is an early Baroque palace in Prague’s historic quarter of Malá strana (Lesser Town).
Built in the 16th century and 1920s, the palace became a base for the development of athletes and the headquarters of the Sokol organization.
Sokol (which means falcon) is a sports and physical education movement which was founded in 1862 by Miroslav Tyrš and Jindřich Fugner.
The movement’s central tenets were the balance of body and spirit, influenced by romantic or national sports movements in fellow European countries and tracing inspiration back to Ancient Greece.
