This article was translated from German using AI tools. Oscar and Clara gave two movement workshops at the Appletree Garden Festival in Diepholz. Around 30 people participated in each workshop and got a taste of movement.

We were thrilled by how motivated and fit everyone showed up to the workshops. Everyone was very open to trying things out and joining in. We tried to give a small cross-section of our diverse training in the one-hour workshops. This included various partner exercises, playful soft acrobatics, and locomotion/floorwork.

It was wonderful to see how movement is a language that we all speak. How people who didn’t know each other before could connect through movement.

For us, movement also has a strong social component: spending time together, getting to know each other through shared training, challenging and supporting one another.

We enjoyed giving a small introduction to the world of movement. Many were very enthusiastic and want to continue. Some of the participants weren’t from Berlin, so we connected them with other movement trainers and communities across Germany. (We’ve already written a blog article about various movement communities in Germany). Even if it doesn’t lead to anything further, it was a great experience to connect people through shared movement.
