Aerial Yoga? Namast'ay in Hammock class...
"A hammock is a sling made of fabric, rope, or netting, suspended between two points, used for swinging, sleeping, or resting. The hammock is often seen as a symbol of summer, leisure, relaxation and simple, easy living." - Wikipedia
Huh?
We're thinking the gang from Wilkipedia need to stop by The Loft on a Thursday night and check out Jordann Baker Skipper's Aerial Hammock class, or better yet, enroll in her Aerial Hammock Performance workshop. This aint' no Yoga class kids!
W&B: What inspires you about performing and choreographing on the Aerial Hammock?
Jordann Baker-Skipper: My favorite aerial pieces are performances that include theatrical storytelling and emotive qualities of movement along side beautiful and exciting combinations of technical skill. I am excited to lead the hammock workshop because I think that hammock is perhaps the apparatus most conducive to creativity and experimentation, because movements are less standardized and the apparatus literally supports the performer.
W&B: What can students expect from this workshop, how will it be different from an Aerial Hammock class?
Jordann Baker-Skipper:This workshop will be a co-creative experience from start to finish. We will begin in the first session with exercises in creativity and theatrical movement, and develop a movement vocabulary to tell "our story". The group will collectively decide on the concepts that express "Home" to each of us, and the piece will be a conduit to express everyone's diverse experiences. Students can expect to be challenged in new ways, to go outside of their comfort zone to find deeper levels of creativity and expression on stage. I look forward to creating a new and unique piece of choreography for the Home Coming show!
