Aerial silks basics – Intermediate

With lots of creativity, technique, fun and safety, you will learn to dance at height. After an extensive warm-up to get your whole body strong and flexible, we move on to the vertical dance. Beginners are familiarized with various climbing techniques and first figures. Advanced climbers practise different types of climbing, static figures and small drops. At the same time, strength and flexibility are improved.

Clothing: Cotton leggings, short and long sleeve shirt. In the winter months we recommend long training clothes for before and after the course.
