#1000mokos is our growing Moko Jumbie community.
It began as a Sunday project aimed at building a community of one thousand active stilt-walkers in Trinidad and Tobago. The goal was simply to have fun walking.
What began as friends getting together in the yard to teach and learn how to walk on stilts has blossomed into a vibrant and unexpected stilt-walking and Moko Jumbie community. In the last two years, we have taught over a thousand people to stilt-walk.
Sticks in de Yard came out of this project. While the organisation is dedicated to healthy play and community through stilt-walking, #1000mokos remains a mission to grow and support the Moko Jumbie community—all are welcome.
