Fascinated by the martial arts from a young age, Daniel Tamagi discovered their merit as a form of dance and self expression rather than a fighting style soon after being introduced to the flow arts in 2005.
Immediately addicted to not only the practice of prop manipulation, but the culture surrounding it, Daniel quickly sought out others who shared his passion of spinning.
He is an active member of the prop spinning community, and is the founder of Sound & Motion, a fire and prop performers club at the University of Alberta.Specializing in staff and sabres, he now performs under the stage name FloWarrior as he works to establish himself as one of Edmonton’s top fire performers.
Daniel joins us at Light and Motion this year to teach some amazingly unique and innovative workshops including.
Sabres Workshop
This workshop will introduce you to the basics of saber manipulation and challenge students who already have experience. We will focus primarily on single saber spinning, covering techniques involving throws, forward and reverse grips, and body movement (flow). Some special attention will be payed to the physics and geometry inherent to this prop, and how it relates to other disciplines such as staff and poi. If time provides we will also explore some double saber techniques.
Also teaching at Spin Milk March 26th and 27th 2011
And Spin Out June 17th to 19th 2011
