*TINFA* steht für Trans, Inter, Nonbinär, Female, *
In the heat of activism and our attention on righting injustices in the world, we often prioritize the “movement” out there while neglecting the movement within. Our nervous systems are shaped by systemic oppression, and our strategies for liberation can inadvertently replicate the very patterns we seek to dismantle. We find ourselves steeped in overwork, self-neglect, chronic stress, communication difficulties and irreconcilable interpersonal and intracollective conflicts, which make us sometimes want to give up activism altogether.
This 3-day spring retreat offers a sanctuary for activists to regenerate and learn new skills to stay sane. Politicized somatics broadens our capacity to hold complexity and helps us build resilience and stay aligned with our values in the face of pressure from within and without. Theatre of the Oppressed gives us a creative, playful way to externalize our struggles and rehearse the revolution. We will weave these two modalities together.
Who is this retreat for? This retreat is for FLINTA* community organizers and activists who are: • Longing to reconnect with their bodies and manage stress • Looking for tools to work with internal conflicts and keep hope alive in collectives • Ready to move beyond intellectual debate and into embodied practices • Need some rest and regeneration!
With FLINTA*, we mean Female, Lesbian, Intersex, Non-binary, Trans, and Asexual people, as well as * Everyone in between. It must be emphasized that FLINTA* does not just mean Fem and that it stands for a variety of genders and identities, which also includes the diversity of physical appearances.

Location The retreat will take place at CESTA in Tabor, an iconic alternative venue on the edge of the city bordering a lovely natural area, in shared bedrooms (or option to bring a tent) with fresh vegan food. CESTA is housed in an old mill at the edge of the beautiful scenic town of Tabor, set in a lovely green park with a stream running by. Bought by artists from the U.S. just after 1989, the founders slowly but surely integrated into the community. The space has a long history in the Czech leftist/alternative scene, hosting artists of all kinds and supporting local and international music, theater and social/climate justice projects.

Das Würzburger Theaterkollektiv “Auftreten”, bestehend aus engagierten (Sozial-)Arbeitenden, lädt Pädagog:innen und Interessierte ein, das Theater der Unterdrückten als Werkzeug zur sozialen Veränderung zu entdecken. In diesem interaktiven Workshop, der keine Vorkenntnisse erfordert, lernen die Teilnehmenden mithilfe eines Stückentwicklungsfadens, wie Improvisation und szenische Arbeit unterdrückte Stimmen hörbar machen. Wir schaffen einen Raum für gemeinschaftlichen Austausch und die Möglichkeit, TdU-Methoden kennenzulernen, um Gruppenprozesse anzustoßen oder (pädagogisch) zu unterstützen. Gemeinsam erleben wir, wie Theater als Mittel des Widerstands und der Emanzipation wirkt und stärken damit das Empowerment im pädagogischen Alltag.
Unser Ansatz bei “Auftreten” verbindet künstlerische Innovation mit sozialer Verantwortung. Durch interaktives Theater schaffen wir Räume für Dialog und Transformation, in denen gesellschaftliche Missstände reflektiert und Veränderungen angestoßen werden.
Der Workshop “Theater.Rollen.Gender“ des TdU Wien lädt dazu ein, sich mit den eigenen Erfahrungen rund um Geschlechterrollen auseinanderzusetzen: Wie prägt diese Rolle meine Identität? Welche Erwartungen entstehen daraus? Und wo wünsche ich mir Veränderung?
