Acro-Intensive Workshop: Riding the Flow

Saturday March 10th - Thuesday March 13th, 2012

Day 1 & 2: We will work on the building blocks of AcroYoga Mtl. Style. We will investigate core body containment, static partner balances, rotations and washing machines, and the creative process in AcroYoga utilizing theatre and dance exercises to break through our personal motor plans and movement patterns  to create and eventually move from an inner rhythm that is spontaneous, direct and free from reactive patterns.

Day 3 & 4: The art of vinyasa in AcroYoga will be explored as we deconstruct – and then reconstruct – a 10-15 minute Acro Yoga flow, with an emphasis on utilizing and harnessing yoga and dance as the building block for partner body balancing dynamics, to find the balance between hard Acro, yoga and dance influenced phrasing and rhythm to create a seamless, timeless flow.

Daily Schedule: 9:00 am – 12:00 pm, 1:30 – 4:30 pm
