Half Intensive - All Levels

Decription

Friday, July 11 5:30pm-7:30pm - All Levels - Partner Party (duo skills)

We've all seen those duos where one person is basing in the silk and one person is hanging from them. But how many duos have you seen where no one person is obviously basing or flying, but both are working together and interacting with the fabric to create new shapes? This workshop will explore teamwork, creativity, and tension techniques for some crazy cool new skills. No partner required. It is recommended to have a ten second open hang and be able to climb at least halfway up the silk several times throughout the class.

Saturday, July 12 9:00am-10:30am - All Levels - Creative Conditioning/Technical Tune Up (multi-apparatus)

Do you struggle with straight arm/leg inverts? How about knee climbs? Do you want to get circus strong, but don't know where to start? Liesl (@aerialaspiration) has taught more than 50 "Get Fit Fast" classes and will compile all the fun conditioning into one class! This workshop will start with the bare bones of aerial practice and slowly get into all the meaty techniques that will benefit aerialists from absolute beginners all the way to the instructor level. No pre-reqs.

Saturday, July 12 1:30pm-3:00pm - All Levels - Silks Ping Pong Basics

Ping pongs. So powerful. So elusive. So cool. And yet, they're SO HARD... Liesl (@aerialaspiration) has made it her special project to understand ping pongs as deeply as possible and she has successfully taught them to aerialists of all levels. This workshop will break down the ping pong to extremely manageable steps and will reveal all the secrets in the process. It is required to be able to get into and invert in a high knot.

Sunday, July 13 9:00am-10:00am - All Levels - Silks Standing climb variations

Russian Climb: It's easy, efficient, predictable... WHAT IF we could climb with all the speed and familiarity, but more interesting and less predictable? This workshop will build on Russian climbs with a host of variations that will spice up any act! It is required to be able to Russian climb at least halfway up the silk several times through the class.
