Join Long Beach burlesque and flow artist, Xochii de la Noche at Pieter Performance Space in Los Angeles for a fun, interactive, and beginner-friendly event where you can learn the art of silk fan movement and flow.
This workshop is perfect if you have never heard of or tried silk fans before, or if you are looking for guidance on polishing the foundations of your silk fan movement in a group setting.
By the end of the workshop, students should feel comfortable and excited to continue exploring movement through silk fans on their own to find their unique flow.
We will cover:
- What is flow arts, and the benefits of flow arts
- Fundamental movements for flowing with silk fans
- Guided movement practice, piecing together moves and sequences learned throughout the workshop
- Tips and tricks on finding your own unique 'flow'
Bring water, a mask, and comfy shoes!
Silk fans are available for class use! Fans are limited, so please bring your own if you have them.
This is a Black and brown, fat-positive, s3x-worker positive, queer and trans centered space! Allies are welcome, but please respect the space.
