What is Street Training

admin — Thu, 11 Jan 2007 16:07:22 +0100

Street Training is
Being aware of the effects our thoughts and behaviour have on our surroundings and making use of this knowledge.

It's all and any of the joyful, funny, poetic, challenging things people do as we move through the streets. Every one does something over and above just walking down the street with their walking-down -the -street face on, going shopping and going to work. These things slip through the cracks in most big cities but the personal playful, joyful, subversive things we do make a difference to us, to other people and to places.

Street Training Hoxton

Come and take part in Street Training Hoxton - First session THIS SUNDAY at
Hoxton Hall

The unfolding story of a collective assault on the culture of fear and cynicism that pervades urban city streets.
We meet at the theatre. Perhaps we might get a glimpse of something precious in the world around us? Maybe we will find out how to be more joyful in the city...
Each performance will be different as we remake the streets together.

On the 28th August at 3.30pm performance artist Lottie Child and a group of people, mostly children, who live and work around Via Garibaldi in Venice, will lead a Street Training session for architects and planners. The session will invert educational hierarchies, with adult professionals being trained by children in imaginative responses to the built environment. We will explore the relations between the built infrastructure and the social infrastructure in terms of safety and joy.
