Yuri Marmerstein 

Artist/Athlete/Teacher

 

I am an acrobat and movement teacher based out of Las Vegas.

I was not too active as a kid and only found my passion for movement as an adult.  For the most part, I taught myself the skills I currently teach and perform.  
I have performed across the US, including on the Vegas Strip and on Broadway.  
I currently travel the world to teach my perspective on learning acrobatic skills as an adult.  
I offer seminars, workshops, and other in-personal educational experiences for all levels.

I compiled some clips from a few projects that I had the pleasure of being a part of last year. you can see the full video on my Facebook or YouTube Music: Julian Lehmann, “Wayfarer” Clips from: @kder1productions @descendedfromodin @skillconvention
Really important lesson I learned and still continue to learn sometimes when it comes to training(especially skill work). You do not have to be physically drained at the end of a session for it to have been productive. I know sometimes the world of fitness teaches us to "go hard or go home" but there is a lot to be said for ending a session well before the point of physical exhaustion. First off, you'll actually feel good. Next, it will help immensely for recovery(especially if you train on a daily basis, something like handstands). Third, it will help to build better technical habits and patterns in regards to the skill work, since fatigue usually makes the skills suffer. Of course, there is still value in pushing the limits of one's work capacity, and there are important adaptations that arise from this kind of training as well. This is just a reminder that it's not the only way. Have a good training. I will be teaching my perspective on developing handstands and other acrobatic skills as an adult a my upcoming workshops in San Diego, Houston, Washington DC, Vancouver, Dublin, Vilnius, and Stockholm Photo by @ardourofficial Jeans worn in photo from @frandenim (you can get 10% off your order with discount code "yurimar")
