Aerial Research and Performance

Tuesday · 5:00 PM · 90 minutes

With Sarah Norden

This workshop is designed to help you find your unique voice in the air—on a technical, compositional, and performative level. We’ll explore the fundamentals of aerial research, or the process of creating original tricks and transitions in the air. We’ll also work with compositional strategies, improvisation skills, and movement quality prompts to help you create and perform with greater intention and depth. Prerequisites: This workshop is for students with a regular aerial practice in any discipline. Participants should be comfortable improvising in the air for 3 minutes without coming down, and have enough of an understanding of how their apparatus moves to be able to safely explore unfamiliar territory. Open to ages 15 and up. Exceptions can be made.
