Introduction to Dance Trapeze
90 min | $50
Take your trapeze skills to the next level and learn to move with confidence on a trapeze that spins, orbits and swings! A technique-focused class that will teach the basics of orbiting, spinning and swinging. For more advanced students of trapeze, the workshop may incorporate floorwork, sequences and improv exercises.
Students must be able to pull over out of a beat and have strong single-knee hangs. Students should come early to warm yourselves up, though Camille will check in on your warm-ups before you get on the trapezes.
