Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast! In today’s episode I sat down with Nil Teisner, creator of Finding Flow. We delve deep into the essence of movement, its transformative power and the flow that can be found in our bodies. Nil shares his journey from skateboarding to mastering acrobatics, highlighting the importance of fluidity, the art of facing fears, and the pursuit of passion in movement. We touch on topics like the interplay between strength and flexibility, the educational aspects of teaching movement, and insights into acrobatics as a tool for exploring risk, uncertainty, and personal growth are explored. Discover Nil's unique approach to movement that blends discipline with creative expression, encouraging us to explore the limits of our physical and mental landscapes. To experience Finding Flow, keep an eye out on social media for Nil’s upcoming workshops in the USA.
