T-O-K

T-O-K is more than just a production platform; it emphasizes the need for the continuous development of dancers and a deeper understanding of the dancer’s profession. The project encompasses various activities – including research, dance creation, workshops, lectures, and discussions – all connected by the central theme of sustainability, continuity, and psychophysical health. Its initiator, Lukáš Bobalik, has extensive experience as a freelance performer, collaborating with a numerous independent creators and project-based dance companies. He also worked as a teacher at various educational levels, including the Conservator). All of this has deepened in the ambiguous nature of becoming a professional dancer today, especially in the context of self-produced work. Additionally, his experience of near burnout, which almost led him to quit dance, motivated him to launch the T-O-K project.
