This workshop will aim to further develop your Contact Staff skills and techniques in vertical plane. Working with 2 point of control tech.
About this Event

In the workshop I we will be exploring how to create continuous looped pathways on a vertical axis, and how to move your body between wall and wheel planes in the middle of these sequences.
I will also be introducing 2-P.O.C. techniques such as smudge rolls and some chi folds, which tie in nicely to vertical contact as connecting points between tricks you may have learned previously.
This workshop can be super useful in your practice of vertical contact staff, and we’ll aim to leave with a greater understanding overall of the possibilities of 2POC play and how to utilise these techniques to gain control and freedom of movement in your contact dance flow!
