HIT OUT is is a choreographic and musical project in which rope skipping is used as a percussive element to manifest embodied rhythms.
After one year of athletic training supported by the Italian jumpers’ community and sponsored by MarcRope – Make your cardio an art (Milan), Parini Secondo and Bienoise focus on the sound produced by rope skipping, dissecting its timbral possibilities. The jumpers on stage perform a rhythmic and at the same time choreographic score in which single-unders, side-swings and double-unders are both athletic and musical elements: combined with voice and synthetic sounds, they harmonize into a true hit.

The performance elevates the intimate practice of training into a performative action: the hammering succession of rope strokes is an echo of rebellion against those forces that would have us lying motionless on the ground with our eyes closed.

Parini Secondo was born in 2017 from Sissj Bassani and Martina Piazzi with Camilla Neri and Francesca Pizzagalli. Questioning the relationship between art and originality, the group works on choreography to sublimate pop trends by being inspired by online material. They collaborate with musician, producer and teacher Alberto Ricca/Bienoise, emphasizing the importance of the relationship between music, rhythm and dance.
