Learn to base, fly, and spot in a safe, supported setting with the guidance of experienced teachers, Dion Boehm & Carolyn Cohen. No partner or prior experience necessary.

All levels workshop building on the basics of flying, acrobatic counterbalances, and partnered inversions taught by Carolyn Cohen & Dion Boehm. Prepare to be upside down! Some experience is helpful but not required; dry skin and non-slippery clothing are a plus.
