Spin Club

Mastering the Art of Spinning — 90-min Workshop

In this 90-min workshop, we will:

• Learn proper alignment in different spinning positions to more easily find your center
• Practice off-apparatus exercises for better control
• Learn ways to "come back" quickly after spinning fast
• Create more efficient spins, maintain them for longer, and control them
• Deconstruct the mechanics of a fast spin, avoid orbiting when starting them, and see how different spinning dynamics influence choreography and vice versa

Prerequisites: This workshop is designed for aerialists with a good spin tolerance and experience working with spinning. The session includes a variety of off-apparatus exercises to help you gain better control over your spins. We won't be spinning for the full 1.5 hours, and you are welcome to sit out and take notes and/or videos at any time.

What to bring: Water, candy or a sweet snack, a sweet drink or electrolytes, and a food or protein bar for energy (and to fight off nausea in case it shows up during class!).

All the ways In and Out of Cross Back — 90-min Dance Trapeze Workshop

In this workshop we'll dive into a variety of ways to enter and exit the cross back position.

You'll walk away with the confidence to create your own connections with ease. Most importantly, you'll have fun exploring all the possibilities this move has to offer.

Prerequisites: Participants should be comfortable with movements that lead to and stem from the cross back position. Please bring extra layers to protect your skin as needed as we will be working with the ropes a lot.

Resonance

Exploring Intention & Presence in Aerial Performance — 90-min All-Apparatus Workshop

What if your performance could be felt before the first trick?

Resonance is a 90-minute workshop designed for aerialists of all apparatuses who are ready to go beyond shapes and sequences — and step into storytelling, energy, and artistic presence. In this class, we'll explore what it means to resonate with your audience: how to move with intention, express with clarity, and embody your unique voice in the air.

Who This Is For: This workshop is open to intermediate aerialists of all disciplines who are:

• Curious about movement beyond tricks
• Interested in building performance confidence
• Ready to explore new ways of thinking about choreography and connection
• Open to working both on and off apparatus

Through guided prompts, floor and aerial exercises, and movement exploration, we'll uncover how the quality of your transitions, your gaze, your breath, and your pauses shape the emotional impact of your work. Whether you're performing on stage, in rehearsal, or for yourself in the studio, your presence matters.

This isn't about being perfect. It's about being present.
