WORKSHOP | Movement Archery: "The Natures of Partnering" (taught by Tom Weksler & Roser Tutusaus)

MOVEMENT ARCHERY: The Natures of Partnering taught by Tom Weksler (@tomweksler) & Roser Tutusaus (@roser_tutusaus)

If dancing alone is a relationship with imagination, dancing with a partner is a relationship with reality. We believe these two skills are fundamental and mutually relevant. However, when one is practiced without consciously searching for its creative connection to the other, the actual benefit is difficult to sense and experience.

Virtuosity and skill emerge when the line between imagination and reality begins to soften. At that point, solo dance and partner dance become inseparable. This inseparability leads to questioning communication and dialogue, opening a field with endless developments and wide potential.

Within this practice, we explore how we read space, the other body, and the space of the other body. This does not necessarily require changing the shapes or forms created by one’s own body, but rather refining perception and response.

Dancing with another person is a constant acknowledgment of the unknown. This is not an abstract or spiritual idea, but a technical and concrete understanding of partnering and collaboration through movement. No matter how developed one’s technique is, space must always be left to re-evaluate the situation and listen to the needs and intentions of the other moving body.

We believe that practicing this approach creates the conditions to apply technique appropriately and, at times, to propose new ideas that have not yet been explored.

About the Teachers: Tom and Roser

Born in 1989, Tom Weksler began exploring movement at a young age, drawn to gravity, risk, and unpredictability through acrobatics and martial arts. Between 2009 and 2011, he danced and performed as an acrobat in operas and theatre plays. From 2010 to 2014, he toured worldwide with the Inbal Pinto & Avshalom Pollak Dance Company. He later collaborated with Rootlessroot and DOT504 on Collective Loss of Memory, which won Best Performance at Tanec Praha and toured Europe. From 2017 to 2020, he performed with Guy Nader & Maria Campos. In 2021, he was a finalist for Best Dancer of the Year at Spain’s Premios MAX. In 2026, he completed a Master’s degree in Art Direction and Scenography Design at BAU University in Barcelona.

Tom’s career combines strong physical technique with philosophical sensitivity, shaping a movement language deeply rooted in the relationship between body, space, and nature. He is the founder of Movement Archery and a globally acclaimed movement teacher. Movement Archery has been active internationally for over 10 years and has been inspiring movers’ bodies and minds in studios, dojos, gyms, movement facilities, dance schools, and circus academies all over the world.

Born in 1985, Roser Tutusaus began as a rhythmic gymnast and studied music and theater before turning to dance. She trained at Artez Dance Academy (Netherlands), studied journalism at UAB, and space design at UPC-CCCB. Her multidisciplinary background shapes a unique perspective, revealing performers’ inner landscapes and their dialogue with space. She has performed with Anouk van Dijk, Giulio d’Anna, Erik Kaiel, Maria Rovira, Roberto Oliván, and Pere Faura. Her street duet Menar, with Joan Català, won Best Street Performance at the 2016 Catalan Critics’ Awards. From 2014 to 2020, she toured internationally with Guy Nader & Maria Campos. Her work explores fragility and strength, limits and transcendence, shaping movement where friction drives expression. She is also deeply engaged in Movement Archery, contributing as both a teacher and a developer of its pedagogical content, shaping its methodology and practice.

Tom and Roser have been working artistically together since 2018 under the name WONDERGROUND. Together, they have created several movement pieces that toured nationally and internationally and won several awards. They create work for theatre, outdoor, and unconventional spaces. In 2023, they opened their own studio, THE ISLAND, located in the park of Collserola on the outskirts of Barcelona.
