SAT 4:00 - 6:00 = CIRCUSTENTIALISM @ Skybox

This six-week series is a chance for aerialists to develop their creativity & choreography, exploring sequencing, transitions, composition, and stage craft in the creation of a piece. Each class teaches a sequence of movements on a different piece of equipment (Silks, Trapeze, Lyra, Corde Lisse, or Cloud Swing) and then goes on to apply these movements in the context of an exercise. Exercises include both duo and solo work, choreography, improvisation, musicality, and stage presence, and emphasize the experience of transforming tricks into dance, and acrobatics into art. Students will finish the course with a composed piece of choreography, as well as expanded knowledge of technique and a deepened connection to their own creative voice and expression.

Each class stands on its own, and it is not necessary to attend all 6 classes to get the benefit of this course. Nor is it necessary to take the classes in order, although the classes do build upon and inform one another.

PLEASE WEAR: Comfortable fitted clothing (dance or yogawear is good) that covers the back of the knees and waist area + BRING long-sleeved shirt (for drops!)
