Duo Straps

Sunday, December 17 @ 3:30 – 4:30pm

Join instructor, Maria Artim-Noorigian, for a duo straps workshop where you will team up with a partner to learn duo based tricks and skills. We will work on strength, technique, & flexibility as well as a focus on synchronized timing with your partner to create beautiful symmetry through counter balance. Our end product and goal is to piece together a choreographed duet with smooth controlled transitions in and out of dynamic tricks.

Please keep in mind you must be willing to work as a duo, so share the idea with your friends and encourage them to come and explore flying together!

Must have intermediate level straps experience. Hope you will join in for this exciting workshop!

$40 for all participants

Approaches to Sequencing

December 26-29 @ 10:00 – 11:30am

Sequencing tricks together to make an act can be a “tricky” process! In this workshop series with coach Adam Woolley we’ll break down traditional to contemporary approaches to movement sequencing in circus, and experiment each session with each different process. You don’t need any experience in act creation to join in, but you should feel ready to put together some material!

$160 for 4 Sessions

Exploring Strength & Flexibility

December 27 & 28 @ 12:00 – 2:00pm

Do you know you need to build more strength or flexibility, but struggle with maintaining a regular stretching or conditioning practice?Maybe you need a new approach!

In this two day master class with coach Adam Woolley we’ll explore some basic concepts underlying motivation and exercise science and apply them to our own circus lives, deconstructing the barriers and unveiling a different view of what conditioning and stretching can look like.

Appropriate for anyone who has ever struggled to gain strength or flexibility and is a bit of a nerd about science and psychology.

$80 for all participants
