Dancing in Trees

Join an aerialist & arborist team for a unique outdoor workshop to discover the freedom & joys of climbing trees and dancing with rope & harness where gravity feels suspended. This low impact workshop offers curious movers an opportunity to climb, explore, dance and enjoy the view. We’ll teach you all the ropes you need to know, including movement repertoire and acrobatic techniques, while giving you space to explore at your own pace.

A typical day will include practical and creative programming: grounded meditation, rigging instruction, dance technique, tree anatomy, stretching & physical preparation for injury prevention, and personal discovery time.

Participants will learn the practical side of tree climbing including gear and physical techniques, as well as the spiritual side of considering our relationship with the natural world, reading the land to understand its history and our place in it, challenging ourselves to consider change, and deepen connections to the humans with whom we share this path.
