Winter Wonderland: Aerial Act Creation is a 4-session performance series. One week after the series concludes, participants will present their acts in a Cabaret Evening at Om Factory — with an option to perform the acts again at NYC's iconic cabaret venue The Slipper Room (additional fee applies)! 

More than just a workshop — Winter Wonderland is an adventure through the creative process of aerial act development. Over the course of this workshop, you’ll be guided through the steps of building & refining your own aerial performance. This series is designed to encourage growth, exploration, and transformation, from the initial concept to the final presentation.

We’ll explore musicality, storytelling, character development, and audience engagement, as you take your aerial practice to new heights. Whether you’re a first-time performer or a seasoned aerialist, this journey will help you push boundaries and bring your imagination to life, both in the air and on the ground. 

Choose your favorite apparatus — silks, lyra, rope, or hammock; solo act or duo with a partner — and prepare to embark on a path of growth, creativity, and performance. Students are encouraged to dream big and fully embrace the adventure of aerial performance.

Note:  Must be able to attend ALL sessions & perform their chosen apparatus skills before enrolling.
