The Aerial Silks Level 1- 3
Cori developed the Aerial Silks program used by the Vancouver Circus School since it's inception. It is designed to assist participants in learning both the skills and the cautions necessary to participate in a safe and effective Aerial Silks program for Children and Adult Beginners. Aerial Silks is physically demanding and many children and adults become discouraged because of the strength required to learn skills. From her experience as an adult learner and through teaching silks to children, she developed a program that will allow students to learn skills using LOGICAL PROGRESSIONS that will develop strength while they learn skills and performance routines. This program was developed with assistance from Aaron Johnson of the Vancouver Circus School to assist both students and other instructors to further develop their skills and to train new instructor’s to expand the aerial silks program.
