Climbing on People
Don’t forget to bring your camera! Climb the corporate ladder, literally person-by-person using the concepts of physics and safety through spotting that allow anyone even with no acrobatic background to base, and/or fly. The real accomplishment of this workshop will be the trust, communication and team-work that is developed. Possible skills include: Partner Acrobatics, Inversions, Thai Yoga, and Pyramids.
We guarantee that every single person in your group will have a brand-new brain gym ready skill set to show off at the end of this session. The process of learning to juggle teaches focus, concentration, and perseverance. It can also shed light on weaknesses we encounter in learning; and be applied to many other aspects of life. Possible skills include: Scarves, Balls, Contact, Devil Sticks, Diabolo & Poi.
New skills can be really scary to encounter, or simply frustrating. Pulling from time-tested techniques and creating an environment of strong support and safety is incredibly empowering. Possible skills include: Stilt Walking, Rolla Bolla, Rolling Globe, Tight Wire.
Get all the excitement and relaxation of a vacation with your group, without ever leaving New York City. This workshop will have you swinging, rocking and rolling, attempting the impossible and then letting go! Possible skills include: Juggling, Aerial Silks, Partner Assisted Inversions, Flying Partner Yoga.
