Adaptability in the Air Workshop with Becca DeAngelis. 14 &up or serious student
What happens when you can't use a foot? A leg? Your hand? Find out what most impacts movements and how you can modify the skill or your technique to still accomplish your goal. This workshop works your creativity, out of the box thinking, disrupts habitual pathways, and gives us tools we didn't know we had.

Partnering on Trapeze with Becca DeAngelis. 14 & up or serious student.
In this workshop, we will focus on working with others as an extension of the apparatus. We will work on connecting with our partner and finding the unique spaces between ourselves/partners and the trapeze. No partner required- come alone or with your partner. We'll shift groupings throughout.

Sling / Trapeze Crossover workshop w Becca DeAngelis..
Sling / Trapeze Crossover
Static trapeze can be considered a rigid sling, while Sling can be considered a squishy trapeze. In this workshop you’ll explore the similarities and differences between these apparatuses.
For students who have previously taken this workshop, we’ll revisit some skills, build on others, and introduce a whole host of new tricks.
We’ll roll, drop, wrap, and swirl on these seemingly unrelated apparatuses. Exploring the ways in which the same skills and pathways can be performed on both when applying techniques that account for their shape. We will find timing, wraps, walk-downs, and a few skills which don’t quite translate and the reasons behind that.
Prerequisites: Beginner: Must be able to mount, sit, and stand on the trapeze and/or sling with minimal assistance, passing familiarity with either beginner sling or beginner trapeze skills.
Intermediate: Easily mount the trapeze and/or sling; be able to safely invert a few times over 2hrs
Advanced: Easily mount the trapeze and/or sling; be able to easily and safely invert repeatedly
