Warm Up

Dance – Warm up

9.00am – 10.00am – Week 1 & 2
Space A, The Dance Studio – Tutor Magalie Lanriot
A festival hit every year this class will ease you gently into your day. Beginning with a floor warm that pays attention to sensation, initiation and weight we’ll then expand into exploring balance and falling off of it finding ease of movement in and out of the floor.
Drawing from release and yoga, this class culminates with learning phrases to find control, abandon and fluidity.
NB you should have some dance experience to join this class.

The Kinstretch® Method – All levels

9.00am – 10.00am – Week 1

Full body CARs (Controlled Articular Rotations)
Mobilising and activating each joint in isolation as a way to ignite and strengthen our functional movement capacities in preparation for any physical activity. CARs will build your understanding of your functional joint capacity and how, maintaining it daily, can serve your chosen skill practice.
By the end of this week CARs will become the ‘daily tooth brushing’ morning routine equivalent, for your joints and your fundamental movement health.

Tuesday: Kinstretch® Training
Lower body internal activation, hip rotation capacity and linear strength

Wednesday: Kinstretch® Training

General Warmup – All Levels

9.00am – 10.00am – Week 1
Space D, mother truss – Tutor Iliana Atamaniuk
I propose a warm up that will allow you to be prepared for the day of training, more specifically aerial training. It is very important to be grounded before going in the air, so we will work mostly on the floor mixing it up so cardiovascular, mobility, articulation, strength exercises.
What you need to know is that we will also dance so you won’t feel that you are warming up !!

9.00am – 10.00am – Week 2
Space D, mother truss – Tutor Tess Munro Pedreros

Improvisational movement warm up:

In this warm up we will use creative movement exercises to wake up our bodies and ease us into a creative and receptive mood for the day. We will play, roll, stretch, and puzzle our way around the room. Each exercise will be open to interpretation so you can move at your own pace, listening to your body and moving in the ways that you need each morning.

VAYU Aerial Yoga® Class – All levels

9.00am – 10.00am – Week 1 & 2
Space E, Chandelier 2 (free-standing rig) – Tutor Lee Clayden
An aerial yoga practice created by Ana Prada, the focus of this class will be to open and connect the body slowly and becoming aware of the breath.

The VAYU practice takes the body to a much deeper level. Using the support of the swing we are able to challenge the body moving through various postures, as well as allowing the nervous system to relax, encouraging a letting go into complete surrender Preparing and re-setting the body in a supported, intelligent manner.

Lee has worked extensively with Ana and teaches the aerial yoga pre-training alongside her, he also has a long-standing yoga practice.

This class is open to all levels.
