Aerials with Frank Blueshoes
An aerial is a move where both of one of the partner’s feet leave the floor at the same time. Taken by Frank “Blueshoes” this workshop will cover aerials and “big” moves. With the emphasis on safety and style you will be shown how to perform several different aerials and big moves. Over four hours it will be demonstrated how these moves are about technique and not strength, and how they can be integrated into your dancing. The appropriate circumstances in which to perform aerials will also be covered. Due to the nature of the moves the workshop will feature one on one tuition where necessary.

This workshop is aimed at the more adventurous dancer wanting to try out something more complicated than they would usually encounter. Please note that due to the physical nature of the tuition participants must be fit and uninjured. This will be a fixed partner workhop.
