Fire Fans Lesson
50
Fans are originally a martial arts prop which have been adapted in recent decades to become a versatile dance prop. With fans you can express your creative self as well as create geometric patterns and do tricks. I'll teach you basics of fan dance/fan spinning as well as getting comfortable with and understanding the element of fire. All props would be provided by me but if you have your own, please bring them :)
Training & Qualifications
Since 2011, fans have been one of my main props as a fire dancer and I have taught/performed fans (fire and non-fire) in a plethora of settings. I've choreographed 10-person fire fans performances for Burning Man, worked in a collaborative trio for the Flow Show SF, and taught and performed solo and with partners. My full "flow arts" resume is too long to post here but I'm happy to email it upon request!
Availability & Preferences
Afternoons and early evenings are the best times for me to meet. I'm able to host (in Berkeley) or meet in a pro or a location that has relatively soft ground and preferably mirrors (mirrors are not necessary however).
