Rope Workshops with Zed Cézard
(Re)visiting rope fundamentals: Understanding and enhancing skills & style
This workshop series aims to improve technical and artistic skills on the rope by focusing on rope fundamentals and helping students better understand their own body, abilities and style on the apparatus.
Each workshop (re)visits different fundamental rope techniques (pelvis placement, tempo, support and plank, clefs, etc.) and will be linked to training and strength-building techniques to optimize students' progress on the rope. Students are encouraged to sign up for the full series but are also welcome to drop in to a single workshop as well.
Workshop 1
Wednesday, February 19, 12:00 - 2:00 pm
This workshop offers insight into the mechanism of tempo and the different forms it can take.
We will (re)visit the basics of dynamics, including pelvis placement and body directions, and the timing between muscular engagement and release that is necessary for this.
Prerequisites: Be comfortable with grip strength.

Workshop 2
Thursday, February 20, 7:30 - 9:30 pm
This workshop offers an understanding of the mechanisms of isolation and muscular strengthening specific to rope work.
In this workshop, we will (re)visit basics such as hip-locks, climbing and planks from a perspective of control and body awareness. We will also work to solidify/acquire a vocabulary of rope-specific, muscle-building exercises to avoid expending energy unnecessarily, and instead, focus energy in the right place.
Prerequisites: Able to confidently climb to the top of the rope.

Workshop 3
Friday, February 21, 6:00 - 8:00 pm
This final workshop offers the opportunity to visit one's own creative universe, using body awareness as a starting point, but also learning to let go.
The aim is to create a playful environment in which to blossom and develop one's own vocabulary based on known movements (basic or from one's own routine), notably through improvisation and research.
Prerequisites: None. Everyone is welcome!
