Lyra - Advanced
Saturday 4-530p (TH)
Part of the top bar theory connections, this workshop includes interesting sequences that involve flipping the hoop with and without the torso inside of the spanset. Come learn tips on how to make these transitions smoother, and less terrifying! You will leave with a fun and new outlook on what the lyra and what you are capable of.
After teaching 4th grade in Austin, TX for 5 years, Sofia ran away to the circus and currently lives in Colorado where she teaches aerial arts and flexibility to various skill levels and ages. As an instructor for over 6 years, single point lyra is her passion but she is adept at teaching dance trapeze, sling, and fabric. She emphasizes form and theory to build skill with not just movement mastery, but with creativity and sequence development as well. Aside from working full-time as an aerial instructor, she has instructed immersions at the Aerial Dance Festival, retreats at Sweet Retreats, and travels to bring her unique workshops to studios across the nation.
