Survival – finding the dance, finding our way, staying
Toolkit :

- The tools get better (proved better outcomes through use)
Manifesto :
- Aesthetics & values within the dance
- How we craft layers
- How your partner perceives you
- How you’re being seen
- How we care about that perception
We chose to dance in a trio and include the option to report (verbally) in relation to survival, manifesto, toolkit
