We primarily focus on L-basing, which generally involves the base being on the ground on their back and lifting the flyer with their feet. We normally shuffle up the group throughout the class so everyone gets to work with different partners, however this is NOT a requirement. Come alone or with a partner, and if you prefer to work exclusively with a partner, just let us know. There is a component of physical touch that is inherent to this class. We emphasize consent, and everything is optional! You will find yourself laughing a lot, having fun, and making new friends! Aside from being loads of fun, this class will also help you build strength, flexibility, and balance, and the skills make an excellent addition to any performers toolbox!

Johnson City, TN

Description: This class is suitable for all skill levels - whether your first time in a circus class, or a student with 1000 lessons under their belt, you are welcome here! Trapeze was the first apparatus coach Sam learned, and she believes understanding trapeze enhances performance on all other aerial equipment. This class will focus specifically on triple trapeze (a bar and rope apparatus with three side-by-side spaces for humans to occupy). Unlike other apparatuses, this one emphasizes teamwork and timing. Alongside learning individual skills, as we develop confidence we will put together larger shapes that incorporate 4, 5, or even 6 bodies on the same trapeze!

Description: Partner Balancing (also known as AcroYoga) is a fun, beginner friendly class that involves body weight sharing. Each move we learn will involve three roles: a base, a flyer, and a spotter. We encourage students to try all three roles, but it's not a requirement. We primarily focus on L-basing, which generally involves the base being on the ground on their back and lifting the flyer with their feet. We normally shuffle up the group throughout the class so everyone gets to work with different partners, however this is NOT a requirement. Come alone or with a partner, and if you prefer to work exclusively with a partner, just let us know. There is a component of physical touch that is inherent to this class. We emphasize consent, and everything is optional! You will find yourself laughing a lot, having fun, and making new friends! Aside from being loads of fun, this class will also help you build strength, flexibility, and balance, and the skills make an excellent addition to any performers toolbox!

Each week there will be three apparatuses available to train on. Each student will work on two apparatuses and with two coaches per class. Your coaches will be keeping track of our weekly rotations so every student has the chance to work on each apparatus and with each coach as the weeks progress. Apparatuses include rope, sling, trapeze, and lyra. If you want to take silks, please attend our other silks classes on the same day. Intermediate/advanced students will have the chance to hone their dynamic skills, musicality, technique, creativity, and learn new tricks, climbs, and shapes. Beginner students will learn the basics of each apparatus to form a strong foundation for future classes. There is something for everyone here! Please reach out to us if you have questions; we would love to chat!
