Trapeze/hoop rolls workshop—30 November

Class description

Join our trapeze/hoop rolls workshop with visiting instructor and performer, Paula! (Book both of Paula's workshops [30 November and 7 December] for a combined price using a rolls/dynamics workshops pass—buy the pass and use the credits to separately book each workshop.) During this two-hour workshop we will look at various rolls (barrel, elbow, armpit, etc.). We will discuss the applied physics of each movement and try different tricks in a supportive and collaborative atmosphere. The session will be taught on hoop and trapeze, so everyone can work with the apparatus of their choice (or try both). To attend the workshop you must be comfortable moving around either hoop or trapeze, and be able to hang from the hands and from hocks for at least one minute. Want more? Join the following week's trapeze/hoop catch and release workshop too. Paula spent many years taking regular classes in aerial studios and community circuses before she took the leap to become a theatre and circus artist. Since starting her career change in 2021, she has continued to upskill through creative residencies and workshops. She just finished a two-year stint at full-time circus school in Spain, where she specialised in static trapeze. Paula works as an aerialist and performer.
