Welcome to our Friday Queer Pole Pop-Up! This beginner friendly pop-up class is focused on creating a dedicated space for Queer and Trans people where we can relax, have fubn, and learn pole! We will combine basic tricks and classic dance moves to build a short routine.
Please come dressed to move!
• Pre-req: Leg hang (either from inverting up or dropping down). Ideally a brass monkey but can be a work in progress and should be familiar with cupid but you don’t need to love it or feel 100% solid with it to make magical transitions. • Description: Thread throughs and twizzles for both spin and static pole. Take moves you are familiar and comfortable with and put a new swizzle on your transitions, moving from one move to the next in ways you might not have thought possible. We’ll be taking some of your pole foundations to a whole new level to challenge your body and brain as well as tantalize your audience should you choose to show off your twizzle skills.
• Pre-req: Solid butterfly (baby or extended) OR a solid brass monkey (from any entrance) • Description: This workshop is for intermediate to advanced students looking to master or add additional variations to their handsprings and ayeshas. If you are new to handsprings this workshop will help develop a strong foundation and ensure proper body alignment so as to rapidly improve strength and confidence. For students already comfortable with ayesha and handspring this is an opportunity to discover new ways to transition into and out of these challenging moves.
