Become the machine that gets you in the rhythm – no instruments just your voice and body.
Say yes and to rapping, basic beatboxing, and vocal sound effects and let’s create a human sound board together.
(We invited Zsaris because she brings a rare combination of badass skills like rapping and beatboxing, while being a delightful and easygoing person. Oh, and a woman. And low-key famous in the Philippines. I mean…)

Intimate Storytelling
Workshop weekend with David Moncada
This 2-day workshop explores the power of personal narrative and emotional honesty in improvisation. Through this exploration, you will learn to access vulnerability, presence, and authenticity on stage.
The focus is on telling small stories with big impact: stories rooted in lived experience, memory, and human connection.
Designed for improvisers who want to deepen their relationship to vulnerability, presence, and personal storytelling.
(It is no secret that we think David is an incredibly inspiring improviser, whose work(shops) we LOVE. But this topic sounds especially fitting for these times. And David brings such a refreshing style of teaching. Highly recommend!)
Dates: Sat, 09 May 26 - Sun, 10 May 26 11:30 - 17:30
Location: Flock Studio – Treehouse, T.T. Neveritaweg 57-M1, Amsterdam
Teacher: David Moncada (Colombia)
Basically, whether you have time in April, May, or June, you have no excuse to NOT come to visit us.
Just saying…
😉
