summer aerial workshops

I hitched up the caravan and moved to Bishops Castle for ten days in August, combining the aerial workshops with a holiday in the beautiful Shropshire hills.
Based at the wonderful community venue, SPaRc, four separate groups met to learn the basics of aerial work and develop their creative dance ideas.
Daily session for local children and teenagers plus an evening session for adults were all enthusiastically received. We played with gravity, stretched our bodies and imaginations, made work together and separately and finally invited friends and family to come and see what we’d achieved.
“Never seen him so comfortable in movement” “you all looked stunning”
“Jess came home with inner confidence” audience feedback

In the second week a group of disabled artists from Epic Arts based in Cambodia joined with Blue Eyed Soul for an exchange of ideas and an inspiring and fearless two days on the ropes.

lots of lovely photos to come...
