DESCRIPTION
Join this full day of L-BASE excitement with Jenae and John! Begin with co-created movement drills that will push your edges, then drop into the process of flow creation as you learn to harness the intuitiveness of Acro flows.
Flow with all the elements of L-basing, practicing fun, flowy transitions, diving into whips, and taking off with precision Icarian pops. Jenae and John love all categories of L-basing and are excited to explore different aspects with you.
You will have options for tricky transition steps that will challenge experienced practitioners and are scalable for those newer to acro. Whips, one of their favorite skills in all of acro, will be a focus as you dive into the techniques to create big swings and set yourself up for successful whip pops.
