Breathing Like an Opera Singer: bringing breath into your choreography
1 and 1/2 hours, Advanced Beginner to Advanced, any apparatus
Prerequisites: Comfortable in the air for up to 2-3 minutes at a time. Come with a short sequence in mind that doesn’t need to be complicated.
In this workshop, we will take elements from classical vocal training and incorporate them into how we breathe as movers. We will also discuss how to incorporate breathing into our choreography to help for smoother movements and more fluid transitions.
We will discuss how to recognize where you breathe and how often, especially in longer sequences, as well as touching upon how to breathe in more challenging moves. 
Finding Your Groove: Aerial Musicality, for non-musicians and musicians alike
2 hours, Advanced Beginner - Advanced.
Prerequisites: a willingness to move and listen. Be comfortable combining sequences and being in the air for more than 2 minutes.
Using ideas from Viewpoints acting and movement training, we will explore how music can truly inhabit our bodies by breathing with (and even singing with!) our music choices.
We will play with short sequences, finding inherent and internal rhythms, and then translate those into more fluid aerial movement that can be dynamic, fun and even silly.
Students can come with a piece of music in mind, or just be open to whatever I bring that day.
