LYRA AKA AERIAL HOOP

Hoop – Improver and up

12pm – 1.30pm – Week 1
Space F, Stage – Tutor Iliana Atamaniuk

Here we will learn the basics of dynamics, trying to figure out the mechanics and how to feel safe within that. We’ll also work on dynamic sequences with some improvisation work so that you can be YOU in the air !!

Pre- requisites: A good knowledge of most simple positions and to be comfortable with transferring between them. A basic knowledge of dynamic movement isn’t essential but is recommended. 

Hoop – Intermediate and up

10.15am – 11.45am – Week 2
Space F, Stage- Tutor Jenny Tufts

Jenny will be sharing sections of her favorite repertoire, which heavily feature using spin technique to create seamless transitions, illusions, and isolations. Shaped by Ireland’s general lack of ceiling height, Jenny’s choreography has a strong focus on top bar / rope work. Please come with layers to protect your legs, midriff, and elbows, and be prepared to spin!

Pre requisites: Students should have a consistent aerial hoop practice, be able to invert comfortably and repeatedly by themselves (not jumping off the floor), and a deep love for spinning.

Hoop – Skilled and Advanced

10.15am -11.45am – Week 1
Space F, Stage – Tutor, Iliana Atamaniuk

Here we will have a quick review of the basics of dynamics but we’ll also aim to learn lots of dynamic tricks and material and how to make them your own, alongside some dynamic sequences.

Improvisation will also be part of the workshop so that you can find yourself in the air !!

Pre- requisites: A good level of strength, confidence and control on the hoop is essential to join this class.
