Beat Breakdown w/ Rachel Rees

Dynamic movement is one of the most special and exciting qualities of aerial rope, and basic beats are our foundation. Whether you're newer to rope or a seasoned artist looking to get back to basics, this workshop will introduce you to the building blocks of momentum on the rope and strengthen your existing foundations. Using basic beat pathways, we will explore how to use momentum to get in and out of familiar shapes on the rope.

Students should be comfortable climbing the full height of the rope, inverting in the air, and should be able to hold a hollow body "dead hang" position for at least 10 seconds. Familiarity with front balance, hipkey, and a strong straddle inversion position are encouraged. Questions if this workshop is right for you? Email Rachel at rmrees13@gmail.com
