**For returning students to these workshops, Matt will have several new tricks and transitions working out of these base skills and will teach a KILLER combo that centers around these skills

Flowy transitions

In this workshop we will learn how to connect fundamental inverts with flow, style and finesse so that your spiny flows become seamlessly smooth. Emphasis will be placed on technique, contact points, body/limb placement and conditioning that will take your combos to the next level. We will also explore how mastery of these fundamental transitions are applied to more advanced skills and sequences

Brass Monkies & Janerios

In this workshop, starting with brass monkey entrances, we’ll unravel the secrets that make this move not only safe but also the gateway to a world of advanced tricks and mesmerizing transitions. Open to a wide range of levels with a series of unique and level-appropriate skills and transitions that all start with the brass monkey. Advanced polers will master the art of the Janeiro, while intermediate polers will explore the Reverse Poissant and Satellite and maybe even iguana entries, exits, and transitions, adding a touch of flair and mystique to your repertoire.
