What's a shrug and how do you do it?
|
Hey Reader, If I could name one single thing that I think there's the most confusion about in the aerial world, it's how to do a shrug. This is something that I end up talking about at basically every single studio that I've ever visited, and every student that I've ever worked with. A shrug can be a really important and powerful part of your aerial warm up! But if you're not doing it in a beneficial way, it's just something that's wasting your time without giving you a whole lot of benefit. In my latest YouTube video, I'm sharing a quick run down of whats important in a shrug, and how I teach and cue it. Check it out! Hope you enjoy! Love, Lauren PS: I'm getting ready to launch Aerial for Nerds again, and this time I'm going to be offering some sweet Early Bird discounts, but only if you're on the waitlist! And this is a new waitlist, so even if you've been on it before, you're going to want to get on it again! |
