About the event
Join Kelsey for this 75 minute workshop to learn some fun sequences on trapeze and practice blending transitions to create a more seamless flow. Have no trapeze experience? If you are comfortable on lyra or sling, feel free to join! The sequences will include moves that are somewhat transferable between these apparatuses. Â You'll have the opportunity at the end of class to try the sequence on a lyra or sling if you'd like!
PREREQUISITES:
Comfort with foundational skills on trapeze, sling, or lyra, including the ability to mount the apparatus with good control. Â
NOTE: We will be using this workshop to gauge interest in starting regular group trapeze classes with Michelle Spurlock at Upside in the future!
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:Â
Kelsey has a background in contemporary dance and circus arts. She began training in circus arts in 2011 with Caroline Calouche & Co based in Charlotte, and performed in numerous company shows. She began teaching there in 2022 and then taught trapeze for Upside Aerial in 2023. Although she trains on multiple aerial apparatuses, trapeze is her favorite. When she became a full-time teacher at a school for the deaf, we were sad she had to leave Upside, but so excited she's returning for some summer workshops!Â
