Step into the season of love and renewal with our next aerial hammock performance theme: “Spring Has Sprung.”

We’re calling all junior aerialists, dancers, and dreamers to embody the elements—earth, wind, fire, and flora—in a show that celebrates nature’s untamed beauty and vibrant awakening. Think ivy-draped goddesses, mischievous nymphs, ethereal fairies, and butterflies taking flight.

Over 9 weeks, students will create and refine their choreography with the support of a coach while adding performative elements to bring their routine to life. Followed by 4 weeks of rehearsal in the performance space. The series culminates in a live showcase at ON St. Elmo on Friday, 5/8, for friends, family, and community.

Students will explore:

• Choosing music that enhances their style and storytelling
• Building a character and express it through movement
• Adding creativity, musicality, and nuance to choreography
• Growing in a supportive environment that celebrates artistry and cheers on every performer

Prerequisite: Participation in a previous youth aerial dance series. Class limited to 8 students. Ages 11+.

Cost of workshop: $660
