INTRO TO

AERIAL YOGA

with Rebecca Drake

Saturday, June 30th

$25 pre-pay, $35 drop-in

1pm-3pm

Aerial Yoga differs from Aerial Dance in that it remains closer to the

ground and supports all your yoga postures on suspended fabric.

Aerial Yoga combines traditional Yoga with the physical training of an

Aerialist. Uniquely developed for beginners thru all levels of experience.

This is also a session class and class size will be limited to 8 students.

 

 

AERIAL DANCE

with Jill Menard, Kaity Granda, Faith Towner, and Martha Najera

   

Move gracefully in the air suspended on fabric, free from the confines
of gravity. Build strength,  flexibility, and release compression from the body.

This class will teach you the fundamental tech, techniques of aerial fabric including

climbing, foot locks, wrist locks, and sling work. You will find this class a safe and positive introduction to moving in the air. No experience is necessary,

just an open mind, and a desire to get off the ground.

AERIAL HOOP
LYRA WORKSHOPS

LEVEL 1 BEGINNERS

&

LEVEL 2 INTERMEDIATE


Limited space for 10 students only

in each workshop with Kelly Jo Stull

Next workshop dates TBA

In both the Beginners and the Level 2 workshops we will safely explore how
our bodies can learn to dance on a hanging apparatus called a LYRA. Skills
that will be taught include inverting, spinning and posing on the hoop.
We will learn how to sequence basic and intermediate moves together
while using the element of spin in our practice.

KELLY JO has been involved with movement arts all her life beginning
with a background in classical ballet. The progression to circus arts was an effortless
transition where she employs her creativity and grace while dancing on multiple
apparatuses in the air. Kelly Jo is the founder of RADIANT HOOPS, a company
specializing in hoop dance, aerial dance and circus arts.
