Event Details


This time for real !

This super duo of Acrobatics and Performance arrives in Brussels to offer a workshop full of new techniques, fun and challenges!!!

An intensive weekend (6h on Saturday and 6h on Sunday) where we will experience the most exciting techniques of Acrobatics and Acroyoga:

HANDSTANDS: we will work in groups according to your level. Either you are working on the understanding of a better alignement and deepening your training of balancing. Either you have started your journey towards balancing and want to go further with some exercises to evolve in “stability and mobility” in balance and tackle the one arm preparation training.
In both groups we will focus on details to apply on a standing base.
HAND TO HAND: progressions from basic technique to original and surprising mounts and dismounts in L-basing and Standing with the possibility of working in two different groups based on level.
POPS/ ICARIANS: get ready to some of the most exciting tricks where the flyer is really going to fly. this topic will take an important part of the time of the WS during both days.
SPECIAL TRICKS: we will discover alternative positions and new flows in L-basing to help us to expand our possibilities in acro.
DANCE & CONTACT FLOWS in standing acro.
CREATION & CREATIVITY: a part of the workshop is dedicated to exploration and communication between partners. With a guiding task we will build a new sequence through movement, playfulness and technique.
MASSAGE & STRETCHING: at the end of the day there will be a partner practice to recover and relax.

You will be surprised by what you are able to do in a safe and confident environment working with an appropriate technique.
