Acro #jam24seven

acro jam in Portugal
FacebooktwitterFacebooktwitter

The concept of this jam week is that every participant has a balanced give and take basis. If there are tricks that you are not 100% comfortable with, you will find the necessary time and spotters to succeed. As a spotter you are able to learn from the ones working on a specific trick, and most likely you can try the trick yourself, if you are interested.

__MÉLANIE LADYBASE__

As a child growing up in a small town, Melanie had always craved for dance and circus arts. With a constant desire to move her body, she used dance and play to express herself throughout the years. She later moved to Vancouver where she fell in love with Yoga, leading her to her true love, Acroyoga. While practicing Acro she experienced the power it can have; how it can break down walls, foster expression and create communities. Guided by good friends and inspired by great teachers, Melanie would later become a moving force in the AcroYoga world. Eventually, her passion turned into a profession as she traveled internationally. Learning, practicing and teaching Acroyoga became her essence of living. Ladybase believes Acro discovered the talent in her. Melanie is renowned for her engaging and creative training techniques. Her knowledge and appreciation of Biomechanics, and background in Transpersonal Counselling-Psych adds to her teaching ability. Her communication skills, gentle nature and charisma make her teaching very special.
