Behind Closed Doors 11-12 January 2020, Brighton We've been running this series of workshops for the past 3 years as a space for professional aerial teachers and practitioners to interrogate their practise in an un-pressured, non-classroom, training or performance environment to continue our own learning, ask questions, and learn from each other. This final weekend is about all things teaching. It's not taught or led, so bring your questions, curiosity and a generosity to listen and share.
