Class Description
In mixed-level class, we will work with each student individually to strengthen their overall skill set and technique. Students may choose to work on straight-line, spiral, or vault. This is a class for all students, whether their interests lie in competition, performance, or just having fun. All students will have the opportunity to work on body awareness, proprioception, sense of balance, and practicing spotting (if comfortable doing so).
For Beginning class, no experience is required! Get a thorough and awesome introduction to the German wheel in this four-week class. You’ll learn to rock on the wheel, roll with a partner, do cartwheels, and much more. This class will build the fundamental experience you need to progress further with wheel, and it’s also a great refresher for anyone with some prior experience. For ages 13+.
