Creative Intensive 2018 ^expired Free

The Creative Intensive is an annual three week training on aerial tech-nique and creativity. This training program for professionals was de-signed for aerialists who want to work on improving their technique and produce aerial acts, and also for dancers who want to get more aerial training and create an aerial dance solo. The course is hosted by tutors from Fidget Feet Aerial Dance and Rachel Strickland from MadameRex.com.

There will be a free public showing in the IACC of the work created, on the last day of the intensive.

The course is designed for intermediate through to professional level students. We offer contemporary dance classes, stretching, strengthening and conditioning, aerial technique classes in rope, fabric, hoop, and trapeze. We also offer creative labs and one to one mentoring from the 3 tutors and rigging basics.
We also allow for Sunday open training; during this open training is is possible to book the coach for one to one at an extra cost.
We will have lunch-time talks on act selling, budgets, insurance etc. The work will be geared towards the showing on the 16th of December. We will be offering training towards a show-making, working with professional riggers, lighting and sound technicians, costumes and make-up.
The course ends with a free public performance of the acts in the IACC on the last day. All are welcome, so invite family and friends. The IACC will invite funders and theatre managers.
