In addition to our regular session and drop-in classes, we also often offer workshops, either by guest instructors or our own staff. Workshops offer the opportunity to delve deeply into a specific concept, or to work with a new instructor who may not often be available to you. Watch this space for upcoming workshops!

In this workshop, Kerri presents tools and exercises that help the aerialist discover new ways to move on their apparatus outside of the technical skills. We will explore movement pathways, moving from different parts of the body, movement qualities, transitions, theatrical elements, musicality, dynamic movement, and connecting with yourself as an artist as well as your audience.
This is a mixed apparatus workshop appropriate for all aerialists level 1b through advanced.
Prerequisites:
Must have at least 3-5 skills on their chosen apparatus that they can execute safely and with ease.
Willingness and curiosity to step outside the comfort zone, look weird or awkward, experience vulnerability and try new things.
