Workshop 2 - Tricks and Treats - How fundamentals guide the tricks.

Prerequisite: Intermediate to advanced - The participator must be able to do 2-3 pull ups, be able to up and over, leg lift and invert comfortably. If the participant has no trapeze experience, but is competent in another discipline that is also fine.

The workshop series will focus on gaining a better understanding of how dynamic technique works; working on all manner of beats, exploring new catch release tricks - and what are the fundamental principles that make them work. In the workshop we may also use safety lines as a tool to try exercises, and try some bigger tricks!

Each session will inform the next, but will also work as stand alone sessions. In the second and third sessions, we’ll look at tricks and sequences.

Workshop 2 - Tricks and Treats - How fundamentals guide the tricks.

This workshop will be working at a slighter higher standard than workshop 1. We will look at applying the theory and drills to some fun tricks. Using the language we have curated in the previous workshop we will look at a multitude of twists and drops.
