Acrobatic Awareness Workshop in Melbourne

  • Power and Posture Arm Balance Studio level 2, 178 High Street Prahran,3181 VIC (map)

Movement workshop with a focus on acrobatics.
The idea is to expose participants to learning new movements and refining ones they can already do. I offer different perspectives to allow for a deeper understanding of the moves.
Ultimately the goal of the workshop is to use the pursuit of acrobatic skills as a vehicle for developing greater body control and awareness.

This workshop will take participants through a wide variety of floor movement exercises with a focus on acrobatics.
The content will draw upon inspiration from different styles such as gymnastics, dance, capoeira, and martial arts in order to create an interesting movement vocabulary.

All levels of ability are welcome.

Topics of instruction include:
-Physical Preparation to warm up the body and help prevent injury
-Basic coordination necessary for learning acrobatic movements
-How to reduce impact when jumping and landing
-Learning to become comfortable with falling
-Basics of acrobatics: handstands, rolls, and cartwheels
-Floorwork and other moves depending on the level and desires of the group
-Partner work to add an element of unpredictability.
