Aerial rope mini-workshop (suitable for intermediate to more advanced aerialists - students and professionals welcome) led by professional aerialist and performance maker Laura Murphy. This three-hour weekend session, allows students to practice and deepen their existing skills, and push their practice forward in a supportive environment.
Students will focus on building sequences, conditioning, drops, rolls, transitions and holds such as meat hook and scorpion.
*Students will be responsible for their own warm ups and cool downs before and after the session.
Prerequisites: confidence inverting, straddle climbs, catchers and propellers. Some experience with beats. **None of the aforementioned need to be perfect! They are suggested as a baseline for confidence working on aerial rope. Please do get in touch if you are unsure about if the session is suitable for you.
A bit about me …
Tickets and Costs:
I use a sliding scale fee structure based on income. I don't require any proof of income, and where you position yourself on the scale is entirely at your own discretion. Income is intended as a guideline, but I recognise there may be other factors, such as caring responsibilities or additional living costs, that affect disposable income. Inspired by other businesses using similar models, this approach allows people to choose a price that best reflects their individual circumstances. My aim is to earn a sustainable income from my profession while making aerial classes as accessible as possible to people with different financial circumstances.
In addition, for every workshop, one place will be reserved at £45 for someone from the Global Majority (this is separate from the two places available for those with an annual income below £20,000).

This reduced rate forms part of my commitment to anti racism and to widening access to aerial rope and circus for people from the Global Majority, recognising that structural inequalities can affect opportunities to participate.
