(AC) Aerial Rope - Continuing (Intermediate/Advanced) $36 per class From $33 per visit with (AC) Aerial Class - Session Pass (6 weeks) pass Purchase required to enroll
Aerial rope, also known as corde lisse, is a challenging but exciting aerial apparatus. Students will learn to climb, hold themselves in various positions, wrap for and perform drops and explore movement quality. Intermediate/Advanced: For students with previous experience on rope or fabric who are comfortable with beats and can invert multiple times in the air.
(AC) Partnering in the Air $36 per class From $33 per visit with (AC) Aerial Class - Session Pass (6 weeks) pass A credit card is required to enroll but isn't charged until the time of service.
How do we work with a partner in the air?
This class will explore how to interact in the magical space above the ground with someone else, on trapeze, hoop or fabric.
We will look at ways to share weight, move together and create choreography together.
This is a beginning partner class, but is meant for people who already are comfortable on an aerial apparatus.
This class is open to participants 10 and up.
(AC) Striptease as Reclamation - Queerlesque $31 per class From $29 per visit with (AC) Ground Class - Session Pass (6 weeks) pass No purchase required to enroll
This is a safe space for a queer-centric deconstruction of burlesque. It's a movement class, and also a gender studies, burlesque theory, queer theory class mixed with self-confidence bootcamp. To reclaim the striptease, you'll learn the fundamentals of the stripping, teasing, performance art, gender performativity, and storytelling in the most theoretical way possible. Then we'll apply that theory to reconstruct those elements into Queerlesque: an artform that tells your story for a community that gets it.
This class is drop-in accessible, but each class synergizes with the next and the prior. Each week teaches a different tool, then applies all the tools collected thus far; the more tools you have, the easier. For stripping, bring a loose fitting tank top, crop top, or short sleeved shirt. Also bring something that opens from the front, like a button down or a jacket. If you've taken Queer Burlesque before, consider this the 201 version of that 101 class.

SERIES BASED CLASS~ please commit to the full session, as you will be taking part in a performance!
Via the red nose clown, we will explore comedic timing, stage presence, breath, the absurd, problem solving in the clown world, stillness, character development, and improvisation in duos and trios. This class will be putting all the pieces together to bring a unique performance to the Wise Fool stage. It is all about authentic expression and tapping into our own inner clown.
This class will culminate in a performance at the end of the session!
Some clowning experience required- if you have not taken a class with SJ before, please reach out and we can determine if this is the right fit for you!
Sarah-Jane Moody has been working with Wise Fool since 1996 primarily as a clown but also loves to write, direct, make music, and disrupt the military industrial complex whenever possible. She is a graduate from the Dell'Arte International School of Physical Theatre in Blue Lake, CA and has studied red nose clown with Avner Eisenberg, Giovanni Fusetti, and Ronlin Foreman to name a flattering few. The world of the clown and the journey that it proposes is quite profound and beautiful, and is a deep passion and constant source of inspiration and fascination.
