Tricking Beginner Workshop
Flips, kicks, twists – tricking combines martial arts, gymnastics and breakdancing into an explosive form of movement. People often ask: “I want to be able to do that too – but how do I get started?”
In this workshop, you’ll learn how to take your first steps into the world of tricking.
- You’ll learn how to approach your first flips and tricks safely and with good body awareness, and how to overcome your fear with the help of mats, without putting your life on the line.
- Together, we’ll work on kicks and elements from breakdancing and capoeira as a foundation for creative transitions. This will allow you to gradually develop your very own style.
Particular emphasis is placed on body awareness, a technically sound and body-friendly approach, and – naturally – the joy of movement.
