Dance Trapeze Workshop (with Joseph Pinzon)

This 1.5 hour workshop introduces students to this single-point discipline. We will explore which static trapeze techniques are applicable to this similar apparatus, and uncover how to make the ones that function differently work in a practical way. Single-point movements, such as spinning, swinging, and orbiting will be reviewed. Some time will be reserved to create sequences that the students can continue to develop individually after the workshop.
