perfectly coordinated aerial turns (SLYT)

U dance team 'elated' after 22nd national championship and online attention A sequence in the choreography took the dancers through a long series of one-legged spins, ending with all 20 dancers flipping an aerial turn in unison. "That's a hard skill to get on, with 20 people on the floor," Tumbleson said. The dancers and coaches initially planned that only a few dancers would execute the aerial, but the team decided to choreograph the routine with all the dancers making the flying turns. Story here

For Fulu everything can be recovered and re-enchanted.

Fulu Miziki is a collective of artists who comes straight from a future where humans have reconciled with mother earth and with themselves. FULU MIZIKI roughly translates as “music from the garbage”, which in a literal sense is an accurate description of the thrillingly chaotic eco-friendly Afro-Futurist collective. The instruments they design, build and play are masterclasses in upcycling.
