To survive one is obliged to form a pack…. we resort to collective body practices to survive. Paul Virillo Building upon their research with athletes, Phoebe and Alex will lead a physical training session exploring resistance and competitiveness through collaborative movement, team / pack mentalities and collective strength. The session will be active and explore exaggerated contact between participants drawing upon basketball, rugby and american football drills to create a series of performances which will be filmed during the workshop. No previous athletic experience is needed to attend. This research builds upon Phoebe’s work with choreographer Nandi Bhebhe using live performance and performance to camera to negotiate multiple histories and intergenerational perspectives, disrupting power structures and exploring relationships of solidarity. https://www.somersethouse.org.uk/whats-on/hyper-functional-ultra-healthy/resistance-training-phoebe-davies
