On Playing, Training & Challenge: Yuval Ayalon
In this conversation Patrick Oancia chats with Yuval about his transition from being a kid swinging on trees, right through to being a competitive gymnast, performance artist and finally ending up a globally renowned teacher of hand balances.
There's a lot of ground covered that relates to how to commit to a practice, the approach and attitude that one would take towards stress in competition and thereafter, trying to understand how to fit all these pieces into a type of life which can be fulfilling and positive.
Baseworks Transmission
These Baseworks Transmission conversations look at both the concrete and abstract realizations that emerge from a commitment to any kind of practice or pursuit to achieve life goals. The ideas get unpacked from their subjectivity, and the outcome of each transmission sets out to discover critical feature patterns and construct common recognition categories of physical and introspective experiences.
