Aerial Hoop Spin Theory Workshop

Spin is an elegant and captivating component of many aerial performances, but it’s much harder to grasp than it seems. In this 90 minute workshop, Gena will break down the theory behind spinning and answer questions about how to make it more accessible for your body, training, and tolerance. We’ll cover directional cues, how (and why) to avoid chasing the hoop, different types of spins, where to stand, hand and body placement, how to speed up or slow down, and options to help you achieve your spin goals.
