    Description

    This workshop is focused on some of Acro Revolution’s favorite styles:

    • Whips
    • Whip-Pops
    • Icarian Games

    Playing and mixing the 3 disciplines in order to create fun flows that transition between one another. You will learn each of one of those skills from the basics and progress step by step to advanced tricks in a way so gradual and fun that you will be able to get even more complex skills that used to look out of reach! This 3 modules workshop will cover not only Whips and Icarian dynamics, but also spotting techniques in order to offer you a safe and fun learning experience. Pri and Jen’s teaching method is based on the idea that the best way to learn is to have fun and experience things on your own. This is why they always thrive to have their students participate as much as possible in the learning process and they try to give them as much practice time as possible. The spots are limitedto ensure personal attention to all participants. You do not need to come with a specific partner. Looking forward to see you all soon !

    Highlights

    𝗦𝗼, 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀?
    Whips are the most elegant dynamic transitions of the acro world. They take advantage of the momentum to let the Flyers slide on the Bases’ feet, creating fluidity in their movements and making them look just gorgeous. They also have the adrenaline touch of high-speed movements, and if you add a pop to it, then it’s the perfect combination between elegance, adrenaline, air time, and fun!

    Watch out, once you get a taste of it, you might not want to stop ever more. So yes, there are dynamic and so they can be scary.

    The good news is we are experts at this, and we’ve created a complete foundation course full of step by step progressions that will enable you to learn these movements at your own pace in a totally safe environment. Whips will never have looked more accessible than in this workshop!

    𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗜𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀?
    Have you ever dreamed to fly like a bird? We probably all did. In these kinds of pops, Bases and Flyers fully disconnect, and the Flyers really do fly! They include a wide range of possibilities that allow you to change position in an incredibly dynamic and fun way. Once you get the technique, so many variations of all levels become possible that they are just addictive.

    Another great thing is that they are the perfect discipline to become a great Spotter in addition to an excellent Flyer/Base. Did you know that at a professional level, the Spotter is usually the Coach? That’s because spotting enables you to see and live the movement with a completely different perspective, so if you’re good at spotting a movement, you are much more likely to become great at doing it yourself!
