Vertical & Aerial Dance Harness Creative Labs

29 August - 2 September 2022

Back by popular demand, we have three 5-day Creative Labs tailored to 3 levels: professional / intermediate / explorer on the gorgeous convex walls of Attenborough Centre for Creative Arts in Brighton.

Each level will learn with Lindsey Butcher, Lee Clayden, Roel Seeber and Magalie Lanriot, exploring vertical and aerial dance harness vocabulary, technique, creative play, solo and group work.

The Professional strand includes mentoring from each of the tutors on a current act, idea or project.

Early Bird Discount is available exclusively to you as a subscriber to our mailing list until 23:59 Monday 01 August 2022, so get in there quick!

In 2019, '10for10' raised £1400 and we're ambitiously aiming to double this ahead of EADF 2022 so that we can update the gear and equipment we make available to participants and to provide access accommodations for disabled aerialists at EADF 2022.

Please do share this code far and wide with friends, families, work colleagues, riggers, students, tutors...
