Aerial Fabric Technique - Beginner Sunday, February 17th 2:00-5:00pm For students who have no aerial fabric experience or those who want to start again with the basics. We will explore the fundamentals of using your fabric as a dance partner, basic climbing, single and double leg locks (suspended standing in the cloth) and simple choreography that can be done from these fundamental positions. We will also address safety and physical conditioning techniques required for this type of dance.

Aerial Fabric Technique - Intermediate Sunday, March 2nd 2:00-5:00pm
For students who have completed our Beginner workshop or have some aerial fabric experience. We will build on the basic fundamentals learned in our beginner workshop, creating more choreography from the single and double leg-lock positions, explore rotating movements, more advanced extensions and hanging upside-down. We will also learn more physical conditioning techniques to build the unique strength and flexibility necessary for this type of dance.

Aerial Fabric Technique - Advanced Sunday, March 9th 2:00-5:00pm
For those who have completed our Intermediate workshop or have an intermediate level of aerial fabric experience. We will build on the positions learned in the intermediate workshop with a focus on upside-down movements, flips, how to suspend with both legs free, and more advanced physical conditioning techniques.
