System of a Dawn: Unique Fabric Sequences Inspired by Rope - Sarah Dawn
Fabric & Corde Lisse - Intermediate - Advanced
Saturday 2p - 330p (AC)
This workshop is geared towards the upper intermediate/advanced vertical aerial practitioner who has interest in beats and momentum movement.Specifically, we will be exploring how to translate break beats (hip hop beats), window beats, pike beats, scissor beats and others into moves utilizing split silk theory, in addition to adding momentum to these movements. There will be a brief review of beats at the beginning of class, so no experience is necessary, but coming prepared with some prior practice in beats and momentum will help the attendees get the most out of this class.
