ABOUT TRAINING
VAMPS currently offers Level 1 Aerial Silks Teacher Training in collaboration with Rapt Aerial Dance Company in Austin, Texas. You will gain the tools and knowledge to properly and safely create and lead Level 1 Aerial Fabric classes, whether "drop-ins" or 4-6 week ongoing courses. Suggested class structures, durations, and sizes are discussed so you will be able to mold and modify the curriculum to suit your studio and students. Each class and configuration of students will be different and have different needs. We focus on what we believe to be the main goals for Level 1 and Beginner Students:
1. Developing safety, comfort and grounding in the apparatus and in the air.
2. Developing orientation and body awareness in the apparatus.
3. Building basic vocabulary.
4. Conditioning.
