    Safety and Spotting Workshop

    2 hour Safety and Spotting Workshop

    This can be offered via Skype, or live within my studio or again, I can travel to deliver it. It can also be booked along with the Pole Certification if I am traveling. Contact for more info

    This 2 hour workshop will be lead live in the host studio. Aryn will go over important safety points for many of the advanced moves that are common to the pole sport industry. Aryn will not be teaching how to instruct these moves, but rather ways to make these moves safe through visual awareness, body physics and proper spotting. This workshop is open to instructors, students and friends/spouses of students would would like to lend assistance to their pole-er.

    This workshop is best when done in pairs so that each person can spot a “student” throughout the workshop. Mats are not required for this workshop as the focus is safe and effective spotting.

    Learn Safety and Spotting for These Industry Standard Moves:

    • basic inversion
    • inside leg hang
    • outside leg hang
    • boomerang
    • butterfly/extended butterfly
    • superman
    • handspring/handstand
    • elbow hold
    • layback (cross foot, cross, knee, cross ankle) shoulder mount

    Once the studio deposit has been paid, the participants of the workshop are invited to suggest any other moves they would like detailed with spotting. This list of moves will need to be emailed to Aryn upon the final payment for the workhshop one week prior. If there is time available, Aryn is happy to go over any and all suggestions to make sure your studio is as safe as possible!

    Commited to make the sport of pole fitness safe, fun, and flying high in Canada!
