Beats & Movement Pathways
on Vertical Apparatus
with Kevin T
Do you love dynamic movement, creative pathways, and the ability to utilize strength and power on your apparatus? If yes, then this is the series for you!
In this series we will review our basic beat shapes (bell, front/back, pike, fly), practice our beat variations and difficult shapes (scissor, long swings, break/switch, alt. grips, flares), and learn one new beat-based skill. Momentum entries like twists and pop throughs will also be covered and practiced, as will the skill of how to dismount your apparatus and fall safely. Finally, we will discuss how to utilize momentum movements as transitions between skills to maintain dynamic flow and rhythm within a routine or sequence.
Come prepared with some knowledge and ability in your basic beat shapes, as well as a desire to work hard, male mistakes, learn a lot, and have fun.
Please note that this session is only open for silks and rope students. We will not be covering bar aparatus, flying pole, or straps techniques during the class.
