In sports and in life, CONNECTION is as important as everything else put together.
When we believe that control is the only way to stay safe or escape a trap, it's easy to fall into the mindset that we need to achieve perfect alignment, with each element working together seamlessly. However, this perspective restricts everyone involved to merely the sum of their individual contributions.
We provide an immersive experience of being part of something that is greater than the sum of the parts. To embody a **Gestalt of connection**.
We don’t access a Gestalt by following instructions. We achieve this level of connection by observing and copying those in the Gestalt we wish to join, and processing the entirety of the experience so that we embody the Gestalt. It is easier to access a Gestalt when someone is shaping it for us.
HOW TO SHAPE A GESTALT - think Steph Curry and Antoine Dupont
1. Clarity. Ensure that the next move is apparent to everyone
2. Patience. Wait to see how everyone reacts
3. A Sense of Calmness. If the chosen move can’t be executed, stay calm, and allow another move of clarity to unfold.
The ability to experience genuine connection is a crucial life skill for the 21st century

About the event
If we keep playing as we start to age, we typically manage our decline from the level of our youth. Hardly motivating, eh? I don’t do that. I grow my game using my situational awareness to make subtle changes in the timing and spacing of my relationships of movement with myself and others. Each time my body changes as I get older, I have a new opportunity to grow my game. Each time I play with a different group of players, I have a new opportunity to grow my game. Each time I share a moment of connection, it feels like a genuinely human experience. That's why I keep playing. That and watching Steph and The Warriors - your situational awareness coach Jon Thorne

Based on assessments of our peer-reviewed coaches, players who refuse to stop trying to control what happens, will be asked to leave.
