Podcast appearances and mentions of michael kantor

Many years ago we remember the Burmuda Triple Challenge being advertized on Obstacle Racing Media's podcast.  When we found out that a friend was doing it this year, we were surprised to realize that it was still around! This friend was Michael Kantor who went down to take on the events with his girlfriend Shannon Woodill.  We figured that if we didn't know it was still around then many others wouldn't as well, so we decided to have them on show to talk about it! We talk about their background in the sport, the island of Bermuda, the 3 different events, unique obstacles, what cause the races supported, additional things to do while on the island, and much more!

Tom Wright joins Regina Botros to talk about his adaptation of Picnic at Hanging Rock at Sydney Theatre Company. Wright's adaptation of Picnic at Hanging Rock for the Sydney Theatre Company has received rave reviews. It's  an eerie, beautiful, and visionary take on Joan Lindsay's gothic tale. The production, directed by Ian Michael, features a talented cast and combines modern elements with the haunting mystery of the original story.   Tom Wright started as a member of Barrie Kosky's Gilgul Theatre in the early 1990s, then with Michael Kantor's Mene Mene in the late 1990s. He has worked as an actor and director at the Melbourne Theatre Company, STCSA, Sydney Theatre Company, Playbox, La Mama, Company B, Anthill, Gilgul, Mene Mene, Bell Shakespeare Company, Chunky Move, Black Swan Theatre, Chamber Made Opera and the Adelaide, Sydney, Edinburgh, Vienna, Perth and Melbourne Festivals. He was Artistic Associate at Sydney Theatre Company 2004–2008 and Associate Director of STC 2008–2012. He joined Belvoir as an Artistic Associate in 2016.  More about Tom here. 

Welcome to Episode 22 of Trainers Bullpen, the ‘Evaluation of Tactical Movement and Firearm Draw Performance During Charging Knife Attacks' with Dr. Michael Kantor Assistant Professor of Exercise Physiology at Ohio Northern University.  It is of course no surprise to law enforcement officers and trainers that edged weapons can pose a lethal threat to officers. Many of the critical blood bearing vessels lie very close to the surface of the skin and even a small blade or an improvised edges weapon can quickly inflict potentially fatal injuries.  Law enforcement trainers owe an extreme debt of gratitude to Lt (ret) Dennis Tueller who in 1982 first explored the question of at what distance does someone charging at an officer with an edged weapon pose a potentially lethal threat to an officer. Tueller found that a subject could cover 21 feet in the time it took an officer to draw their handgun and fire one round.  Although some additional peer-reviewed research has been done since Tueller's original work on how fast suspects can sprint and cover ground and how long it takes officers to react, draw and shoot, Dr. Kantor's current study, using advanced measurement technology, is the first one to deeply explore the movement patterns and draw kinematics of an officer when a suspect is rapidly charging an officer.  In this critically important interview, Dr. Kantor discusses the research, the findings and the shocking implications of this study for law enforcement officers and trainers.  Summary of implications include. The “myth” of the perfect draw technique that successful officers do not repeat techniques they solve problems and repeat outcomes; One handed shooting – at close range attacks the brain will drive forward the draw and shooting response at the speed of survival. This typically involves shooting one handed as the muzzle clears the holster; “Movement is King” - How static range training instills exactly the opposite outcomes that officers need to survive these encounters; Functional fitness is lacking – fitness training regimes need to be designed to develop the explosive, fast-twitch muscle systems officers need to be able to move rapidly…and many more important takeaways.  This study, ‘Evaluation of Tactical Movement and Firearm Draw Performance During Charging Knife Attacks' was published in Police Practice and Research in 2023. Just a reminder, this study is available at www.trainersbullpen.com

Lucy Guerin is one of the powerhouses of Australian Contemporary dance, known for her work in Australia and abroad. An Adelaide native, Lucy fell in love with contemporary dance and pursued this love to New York in 1989, dancing there for seven years. During this time, she worked with leading dance mentors including Bebe Miller, Tere O’Connor and Sara Rudner. In 2002, Lucy Guerin Inc was established in Melbourne, providing a space for exploring and expanding upon ideas about contemporary dance. Through its noted Pieces for Small Spaces & First Run programs, the company have provided a platform for emerging choreographers to experiment and explore choreographic approaches. Lucy has increasingly been working across forms, working in the UK with Carrie Cracknell first on Medea (2014) and then Macbeth (2015). Following the success of Macbeth, Lucy was commissioned by Rambert to make the work Tomorrow. “I like working with the dancers, I like working on the detail of the choreography and the structure of the work.” In terms of acclaim across her career, Lucy won the prestigious Bessie Award for her work Two Lies in 1996 and later in 2005, for outstanding choreography and creation for Chunky Move’s production of Tense Dave, with Gideon Obarzanek and Michael Kantor. A selection of works: Two Lies (1996) Heavy (1998) The Ends of Things (2000) Living with Surfaces (2001) Melt (2002) Tell Me (2003) with Michael Lenz Tense Dave (2003) with Gideon Obarzanek and Michael Kantor The Firebird (2003) Baroque Masterworks for the Australian Opera (2004) Aether (2005) Structure and Sadness (2006) Corridor (2008) Untrained (2009) Human Interest Story (2010) Conversation Piece (2012) Weather (2012) Motion Picture (2015) Macbeth with Carrie Cracknell for Young Vic (2016) Tomorrow (2016) Dark Chorus (2016) Attractor (2017) with Gideon Obarzanek & music duo Senyawa for Dance North Split (2017) I spoke with Lucy before going into rehearsal for Split, recently opened as part of Dance Massive, and in the same week Lucy travelled to her hometown Adelaide with Attractor.

Gideon Obarzanek is best known for establishing Chunky Move in 1995 in Sydney, subsequently moving to Melbourne in 1997 after winning a tender from the Kennett State Government. Obarzanek hoped that Chunky Move would last at least a year in Melbourne, “so it wouldn’t be so embarrassing”. His desire was to create a space for dancers and choreographers to apply for funding and make work at a time when independent dance was very fringe. “I didn’t have a great interest in having a dance company or directing a dance company, it came out of necessity. […] My interest has always been about making work.” Obarzanek remained the artistic director of Chunky Move until 2012. Obarzanek’s work is diverse, with a focus on collaborations, technology, large-scale events, film and site specific works. His work has toured Europe, Asia, U.K., USA and South America. He has been presented at the Joyce Theatre, BAM Next Wave Festival NY, Dance Theatre Workshop, Venice Biennale, Territoria Festival Moscow as well as all of Australia’s major performing arts festivals. Obarzanek has choreographed works for Australian Ballet, Sydney Dance Company, Dance North, Queensland Ballet, Netherlands Dance Theatre and Opera Australia. Obarzanek has a long list of awards to his name, including winning the prestigious Bessie Award with Lucy Guerin and Michael Kantor for Tense Dave (2005) and Helpmann Awards for Glow and Mortal Engine (2008), Since leaving Chunky Move Obarzanek wrote and directed his first play ‘I Want to Dance Better at Parties’ for Sydney Theatre Company, followed by the screen version in 2013. Obarzanek is currently the Chair of the Melbourne Fringe Festival and an Artistic Associate for Melbourne Festival. In this conversation we discussed dance leadership, gender, inspiration, arts funding, the future of festivals and the vision of Melbourne for being a creative hub. Stay tuned for upcoming episodes including interviews with Alexandre Hamel from Le Patin Libre.
