whacking bipoc session
21.08. // 18 uhr
Whacking (also Waacking) is an art form born from the experiences of queer People of Colour in the gay clubs of Los Angeles during the 1970s. It evolved from Punking. Unlike a traditional dance class, this is an open practice space where everyone is invited to learn at their own pace. Each session begins with a guided introduction so that newcomers can become familiar with the foundations. Afterwards, you’ll have time to explore, practice, exchange, and develop your movement either together with others or by yourself. Participants are encouraged to share knowledge and help one another, while you’re equally welcome to practice independently if that’s what feels right. The house rules of Whacking Berlin also apply to this session. Free of charge.
