About the event
Join Liliana to learn a variety of partner acro moves with a latin dance feel! We will explore counterbalance, lifts, and skills that incorporate momentum and dynamic elements, all while focusing on transitions that help our skills look fluid and connected. This workshop is aimed at advanced beginners and up. Get ready to fly!
Each monthly workshop with Liliana will introduce new movements, so if you came to the last one, you'll be learning new material this time around.
Prerequisites:
Students signing up for this workshop should have some experience in partner acrobatics at Esh or elsewhere, or experience with air steps/dance lifts. Bases must be able to safely do five squats while holding 100 pounds. All students must be able to hold a plank position with core engaged for at least 30 seconds; be comfortable doing a cartwheel and landing safely on their feet (it's ok if the cartwheel form isn't perfect); and be able to kick up to a handstand against a wall or with a spotter and return to standing.
