Aerial Hoops and silks - A Master Class with Astra Becks

Astra has been working in the circus entertainment industry for the last nine years as an aerialist and circus performer. Specialising in aerial hoop and silks but also skilled at static trapeze, doubles trapeze, rope and cloudswing. She is now keen to pass on her knowledge of the aerial arts to anyone who is interested in learning. She is also a qualified yoga teacher and has discovered a love of teaching during recent years through teaching pole dancing for fun, fitness and confidence.

Due to the success of the sessions Astra will be teaching another 2 hour mixed ability workshop  in hoop and silks as a try out session for those who have never done it before and for those who are quite competent  too. These will be suitable for beginners. No previous experience is expected but enthusiasm and ability to do an unassisted pull up and inversions will definitely help, as this class will be challenging.

Hoop and silks are classic pieces of circus aerial equipment. During the session we will learn how to use the equipment safely and learn routines covering some basic & advanced variation moves. 
We will learn a more developed routine using tricks, drops, rolls, holds and transitions that will eventually be putting it all  to music and performed if confident enough

Benefits: You will develop core strength (particularly in the upper body and stomach regions), flexibility, agility, confidence and a new skill!
