AYQC at Carpe Diem Flow Arts Festival


  • Wheatland, Iowa United States (map)

AYQC will be presenting two workshops at the 2023 Carpe Diem Flow Arts Festival:

Intro to Acro: Come learn the fundamentals of partner acro practice through a safe, intelligent progression of poses. You'll gain a solid understanding of the alignment and vocabulary for practice, as we cover the roles of base, flyer, and spotter. Starting with static poses, and then making them dynamic, students develop the strength, agility, and balance needed to progress.

Complete beginners welcome! More advanced students will be offered additional instruction to challenge their practice.

Instructors: Nikki Jones and/or Avory Pierce

Acro on Fire
Take your acro to the next level by adding fire! This workshop was a fan favorite last year, and you will go home with some fantastic photos. Instructors Nikki and Avory will guide through safe ways to add fire props in to your acro poses, as well as provide support for any ideas you may have! 

Complete beginners welcome, but some exposure to acro and/or fire encouraged! More advanced students will be offered additional instruction to challenge their practice.

Instructors: Nikki Jones and/or Avory Pierce
