Aerial Sling Workshops with Camille Swift

Sling I – Dynamic Theory – May 14th, 5:45pm-7:15pm

In this workshop students will learn the techniques for executing smooth, effortless beats and dynamic tricks. Want consecutive elbow circles but don’t have them yet? Afraid to drop into ankle hang? Come to this workshop with any dynamic skill you’d like to troubleshoot and dive into the core of dynamic movement under a master technician’s eye.

Prerequisites: Students must be able to invert into the sling from standing on the ground with the bottom of the sling hanging at head height. A familiarity with beats will be helpful, but is not required.

Sling II – Fierce Flow – May 14th, 7:30pm-9pm 

For those students already familiar with beats and ankle drops, take this workshop to push your dynamic sequencing skills to the next level. Learn more complex beat styles and how to link big drops into smooth, continuous movement. All power, no plop! Students are strongly encouraged to take Sling I before Sling II.
