Strongman Collective is a group of people drawing, dancing, and creating in Edinburgh. Follow us on Instagram for more information at @strongmancollective
Whacking Scotland is a Scotland-based dance community interested in sharing, preserving, and growing the art and culture of punking, posing, and whacking.
Punking, later commonly adapted and referred to as Whacking, is a style that emerged in the 1970s in underground gay clubs in LA pioneered by people of colour. It is distinctive through attitude/behaviour/storytelling, posing (inspired by black and white movies) and striking with force (whacking).
