Aerial Arts Workshop

19th and 20th August 2023

Join me on these two weekend mornings filled with workshops in Santa Lucia Milpas Altas.

We will cover a range of movements and apparatuses deepening our understanding of underlying principles and technique.

Workshop Schedule & Pricing

Part I: Silks & Hammock

Saturday 09:00am - 11:30am

Maximum 6 participants

Part II: Trapeze, Hoop & Hammock

Sunday 09:00pm - 11:30am

Maximum 6 participants

Part I only Q.250

Part II only Q.250

Both: Q450

YOU MUST BE VACCINATED as hand on adjustment will be required in some poses and equipment sharing will take part during the workshop.

Part I: Silks & Hammock

Flexibility & strength training on and off the equipment
Learning translatable skills
Building two different but similar routines on silks & hammock

Part II: Trapeze, Hoop & Hammock

Flexibility & strength training on and off the equipment
Learning to understand the similarities and differences of the equipment
Building a small routine on trapeze and/or lyra

Flexibility training

In order to make moves look more fluid and to easily transition flexibility is a must. We will work in the hammocks and on the mat to lengthen and strengthen our muscles.

Strength training

Strength and conditioning is very important as you are required to lift your own body weight around the apparatus. Learn the right technique on and off the equipment in order to progress. Particular attention will be paid to core strength and upper body.

Hammock Fundamentals

The hammock is the easiest apparatus to learn on therefore we will dedicate a good part of the workshop learning our way around it. Lifting your own weight, performing easy and translatable tricks as well as inverting safely can best be trained and learned here.

Working across different apparatuses

The hoop and trapeze differ from the hammock and so do the silks and then again there are many similar moves. Here we will learn to accommodate ourselves around these different apparatuses while understanding how to find the same poses on more flexible or solid aerial equipment. what is easy in one may be difficult on another and vice versa.

Understanding the underlying principles

Finally we will translate a small routines onto the different apparatuses. Seeing how movements flow similarly and yet different, how shapes are held and how movements flow together. Ideally we will be able to perform the same or similar routine over all different pieces of aerial equipment.
