CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Youth Aerial Dance mixed levels welcome! Silks skills, Sequencing, and Aerial arts explorations. Build Skills, confidence, coordination, and technique from ground to air.  We will play with foundations AND beginner/intermediate skills, poses, sequencing, climbing and transitions in the air. Students will learn foundations, and phrases and then explore how to make it your own! Students will train with safety and intelligence all season. This class is often repeated many times.

Contemporary Aerial Dance incorporates movement on ground into the air. In Contemporary Aerial Dance, We thoughtfully co-create movement language, weaving together kinesthetic intelligence/technique, contemporary movement with the apparatus, and emotional intention with equal reverence. Throughout the session, Dancers develop their own compositional and choreographic pieces:  solos, duets, trios and group pieces depending on the dancer’s interest.

What to wear & bring: Please wear clothing that allows your body to move freely. Be prepared to move in bare feet. The backs of the knees, waist, and armpits should be covered to avoid burns. Please bring a water bottle and a healthy snack to each class. It’s hard work!
