Overview
About Me
Hello i'm street artist, aspiring actor and sociocultural animator, it's kinda funny because at the same time i see myself as introvert.
At the street i'm performing with fire props such as contact staff, dragon staff, double staff, contact sword and fire fans, sometimes juggling and dancing a lot.
My partner is professional choreographer (she is performing with me usually) and she is teaching me a lot about contact improvisation, partnering, floor work and contemporary. My big wish about stage arts is to combine contemporary dance and theater with circus props.
If you will have some time i can teach you something, maybe we can perform together?
For me stage arts and stage is place and tool to express and seek expression. So this what i would like to do is teaching people how to find they own way of expressing and how to understand expression of another people. In my experience performing on stage or practicing is one of a few situations when i can be truly myself.
Well i was about to tell something about me and it looks like lecture on the theory of theater. At least i can say that i make best orange crepes, so you need to try it!!

Music, Movies, and Books
For now I'm mostly reading books to my school so it's like Stanisławski, Grotowski, Boal, Spolin, Brook etc. I'm not watching to much movies (idk why).
But i love music, listening everything what is new, fresh, experimental. My favourite kinds are folk, etno and jazz. DakhaBrakha is mixing it and it blow minds you need to hear it!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
For a long time i didn't know what, but i realized that once i did something let's say "impressive". When i was 21 I created new collective cultural space in Łódź City in the middle of Poland.
It still exists you can check it on fb or insta it's called:
"Cyrk Pod Zielonym Xiężycem"
They are still doing cool things but I'm not with then anymore, now I'm studying.
Teach, Learn, Share
So we can talk about theatre theory, i can show you how to dance with fire props or juggle, my main prop is contact staff.
I don't know how to teach dance without long process but we can dance together, try contact impro or i can show you how to make rolls and cartwheel.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good vibes I hope, maybe some workshops around circus or theater, maybe private fire show?
