We’ll be exploring:
✨ Creative transitions
✨ Dynamic drops (the safe kind—no surprise acrobatics, please)
✨ Fluid pathways
✨ And the “wait… can I actually do this?” moments that turn into your new favorite moves

The goal today?
To play, to move, to find your style, and maybe even to invent a combo no one’s ever seen before. Don’t worry about being perfect—this class is the zone for trying weird ideas, laughing when something turns into a noodle-moment, and then trying again until it feels magic.

So shake out the nerves, channel your inner circus gremlin, and let’s climb, wrap, drop, and spin our way into some outrageously fun choreography!
Let’s get creative. Let’s get moving. Let’s make some silks magic. ✨🧵✨
