Two-Day Intensive Acrobalance Workshop December 3-4 Sat-Sun (10AM-5PM)

Aerial Edge is taking your Acrobalance skills to the next level with a Two-Day Intensive Acrobalance workshop!

This Two-Day Intensive Acrobalance Workshop will be on December 4-5 (Satuday-Sunday) from 10AM-5PM, with one hour break, at The Briggait, 141 Bridgegate, Glasgow, G15HZ. This workshop will be given by an EAAC favourite Niko Douwes.

Performing from New Zealand to Miami, USA. with The Circus Capriolie, The Kalasnikof Brothers, Los Gardineiros, Lola and Louis and as Nikovitsch solo act, Niko has been a performing Acrobat and juggler for 18 years and mixes both disciplines.

As an acro teacher teaching in Nijmegen, his home town for 6 years, Niko has changed his plans for a more open approach and now teaches in Espace Catastrophe (Belgium), Hollywood Miami, Grafing, Karlsruhe, Bremen and Munich in Germany, Reykjavik Iceland and many more places.

In acrobalance, Niko has experience in flying and basing and also in trio work where he's mostly the middle man.

Step into the world of acrobalance and you will find a new balance every day.

Course Description

This Two-Day Intensive Acrobalance workshop will focus on upgrading your technical skills for strong and consistent applications of the different moves and positions. It will begin with a thorough Handstand training as this will become a firm base for implementing the higher level of hand-to-hand positions. It will then be followed by a rigorous training on the different ways to get into and out of the hand to hand positions. 

The different aspects that will be discussed that can be used in shows as part of a flow. The course will cover layering methods by working in a trio situation. Special hours will be spent in working with tempos like pitching, and the well-known Patechka- tempo to hand to hand.

Entry level - ability to do a handstand against a wall for 30 seconds.

Each day of the course costs £45. Excellent discount rate for both days, pay only £65.00 if you book the entire two days of the workshop!

This will include:

- handstands with techniques and exercises specific to understanding upside down balance
- acrobatic moves ranging from the simple forward roll to wonderful back flip

The course will progress to linking moves together and include some simple moving acrobalance exercises.
