Whacking:
Whacking is a dance style created in the L.A. clubs in the 70’s. It evolved as a consequence from oppression of especially black queer and gay people. Through body movements they found a way to express themselves freely and a space where they could be themselves. They created whacking, at this point it was known as punking, as an “Expression from oppression” (Quote: Viktor Manoel). Later on the style spread and gained popularity through “Soul train” - a music and dance tv-show in the 70s with primarily black dancers. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punking.

Whacking Daze:
Whacking Daze is a community and a free weekly event at KBH+ for all levels. Every week there is one hour class - here a dancer from the community teaches and shares his/her/their dance and story. Afterwards there is an open jam, which involves cyphers, soultrain, freestyle practice etc.

DJ: David
David is one of our Fuse Point resident DJs. He is a Copenhagen-based DJ that has been at the decks for more than 16 years now. Combined with his dancing background, it gives him a natural instinct for finding the perfect track to get your feet and soul going.
He is well-versed in many musical genres, but will be treating us at Fuse Point with lovely and smooth disco and disco-house beats.

Welcome to Fuse Point:
We aim to support members of the dance and music culture and
ensure a safe and positive space. We want to create a space where you
meet each other with openness in a natural and relaxed setting.
We also want to create a deeper understanding and recognition of the
positive under-represented elements that these urban and street
culture contain. We have therefore set up a guideline for participation
in our activities.
Come with an open mind and give the space to others that you
yourself wants to be given to you.
We do not tolerate any form of discrimination, sexism, racism,
homophobia, or transphobia.
It is not allowed to consume or bring alcohol or other narcotics to
our activities.
We ask you not to take pictures of other participants without
permission. Our in-house photographer will take care of that. If you
do not want to participate in photos / videos, let us know before you
participate in the activity.
We strongly believe that communities, togetherness, inclusion, and
understanding flourish best when people, regardless of age, gender,
nationality, and skills, can meet in a creative environment.

Det er ikke tilladt at indtage eller medbringe alkohol eller andre euforiserende stoffer til vores aktiviteter.
