Friday Acro Jam

Join us at the Ki Centre for your Friday fix of acro fun and training.

We do recommend you to have taken at least one acro class before coming to ensure a safe  practise for everyone.

Workshop 1 Friday 6-9 Icarian Games and 1-2-1 coaching

All Levels Welcome

The session will introduce you to Icarian Games where flyers are being tossed in the air. We’ll go step by step, keep it safe, technical and focus on what’s important. If you are already familiar with Icarian,  Verena can give you a challenge.

There will also be one hour of guided free training where you can get advice on any topic (not just Icarian).

Workshop 2 Saturday 12:30-2:30 Icarian Flying Fun

Let’s start the day with some fun. We’re going to use different techniques to give the flyers some airtime, like thigh throws, double pitching, Banquine etc which anyone can base.  The weight will be distributed between different bases. So even if you have literally no experience with dynamics don’t worry, we will go step by step and keep it it accessible for everyone.

We may also add some easier entries into common Duo tricks.

Workshop 3 Saturday 3:30-5:30pm Standing Acrobatics (H2H and Podczeska)

The Workshop will focus on various skills that you will need in Standing Acrobatics. No matter if you’re already working on H2H or just learning it, in this Workshop we will work on H2H grip, base position and the ominous “rolling” that the flyer has to do in order to succeed with tricks like podsechka etc. We’ll see where your issues lie and fix it. But this workshop will not exclusively focus on H2H but also on other tricks that are valuable to progress in your Acro game.
