Valerie Morris at ADF 2023

WEEK A: Monday, July 31 – Friday, August 4, 2023

Rope and Harness: Tethered Dancing (All Levels)

1:00-2:30 PM. Week A.

Ages 14+. $175. FFP Studio 2.

Prerequisites: Comfort in a climbing harness over extended time and inverting in a harness. No previous aerial experience is necessary, other than: be prepared to have fun and create!

This exhilarating immersion will be structured around learning basic rope and harness dance techniques (not against a wall), as well as the rigging to take this dance form anywhere. We will be working both close to the ground and higher in the air, with ascenders and descenders. The vocabulary taught will be combined with guided solo and group improvisations as part of the exploration process. This is an amazing core workout and is not as intense on the arms for those taking other aerial classes at the Festival. Please wear multiple snug layers around your hips and waist for your comfort.  If you have a harness, please bring it with you, otherwise, one will be 


Valerie Morris has been a dancer since 1980 and became an aerial dancer in 1996 with Frequent Flyers Aerial Dance. She has previously had the pleasure of performing with Movement Laboratories, Lancaster Ballet, CU Dance Department, Boulder Ballet, Wellington Circus Trust, Empress Stiltdance, Borrillo Entertainment, and is AeroTerra Aerial Dance. Her secret life as a scientist keeps her busy during the day, using stable isotopes to unlock the secrets of global climate change.
