New classes in Aerial hoop trapeze/Lyra

Charlie Bicknell — Mon, 29 Sep 2014 10:17:57 +0000

The Lyra (hoop trapeze) is becoming increasingly popular thanks to its aesthetic appeal and the amount of impressive and attractive poses that can be achieved on it in a relatively short amount of time. It is superb for improving core stability and flexibility. Every class will begin with a warm up which includes specific conditioning relevant to aerial work. These in themselves can be demanding and build up the strength necessary for stamina on the trapeze.
Students will learn how to ascend the hoop in a number of ways, hold poses and find transitions from one to another. As these skills become familiar we move to working with music and sequences and try to find a personal style that suits each individual, and use improvisational skills in putting a ‘routine’ together.

Lessons are held in Beaminster Wantsley Farm, DT8 3PT Friday 5pm..please call for class times and if you want to arrange a session for alternative days. 07958480557

The entrance is on the corner of St Michael’s Lane and Gundry Lane.

Intermediates

The warm up exercises take stretches and conditioning further, focusing more on stamina and core strength.
Students learn to play with their skills, working on more inventive climbs, and how to make the transition from one move to another. Drops become more involved and dynamic. We work on saltos, hip key spins, double foot-lock configurations and looking at developing routines and more of a personal style.

One to Ones

timbooth — Wed, 02 Apr 2014 08:34:10 +0000

If you are interested in a one to one then I will tailor the class to the individuals needs and what it is that they hope to achieve. You can book half hour or one hour slots depending on your level of aerial fitness…or share a class with one or two others to allow adequate rest periods. Typically one to ones focus on sequences, often with music, drops and more intense conditioning and focused work.
Wednesday’s lessons are at the Bridport Youth Centre. The entrance is on the corner of St Michael’s Lane and Gundry Lane.
