Hoop Dance Workshop
Hoop Dance is a gravity play between body and props; time and space. It is more than spinning the hoop on the waist, hoop dance is about communication with our own body. The dance with the hula hoop, from bodily practice to psychic mindfulness, will uncover new horizons of body and spatial awareness.
Instructed by artist Grace Hoop, will lead participants to explore their “body as playground”, to interact as well as to open up imagination with community space.

Juggling Workshop
Juggling is mostly based on the control of objects by the hands, in the form of throwing and catching. The most common type of juggling is ball juggling, which often involves one to five balls. The world record holder could throw and catch thirteen juggling balls at the same time. Nowadays, ball juggling is not only about quantity of balls involved, but more importantly distinctive interpretation and body coordination.
Guided by artist Charles Huang, participants will learn about throwing and catching, single and consecutive movement of three balls. Taking the body as medium to dialogue/interact with the city space, by paying special focus on the contrasting relationship in between.

Contact Juggling Workshop
The transparent ball is made to manoeuvre and float like a living creature between the fingers; it can be made to wander and slide around and stay put on any parts of the body.
Led by artist Ho Ho-yeung, participants will explore the techniques of separating, affixing and rolling, to create a mystic series of contact juggling steps, to response to the rhythm of city and community life.
