About This Event
Play fighting is a completely different way of engaging with other people. The way we move, think, and relate to our environment changes in this type of interaction. This group activity lets participants challenge each other for a play fight.
In a safe environment, participants can challenge themselves and each other to fight with each other in a playful and joyful way. Not winning but experiencing is the focus of this monthly event. At play fighting, we will start with an introduction that covers motivation, safety, consent, and expectations.
Afterwards, it’s the participants’ space and time to experience play fights themselves.
