Martial Arts & Contact Staff with Terry Fields

This is an open class for spinners of all experience levels. Terry will emphasize the fusion of traditional staff with contact staff techniques to add flare to your performances and spinning style.

The class will cover the basic moves of contact (Steve's, duck out, back spins, Angel rolls ,basic chi rolls, front side moves as well as vertical and horizontal) fusing traditional staff with contact, finding your inner ninja.

Students should expect to walk away with a better understanding of contact and how to link moves together. All students will begin class with a warm up and stretching, and conclude with a cool down and feedback session.

The smaller class size ensures all students will receive individual instruction in new moves as well as drills and techniques for home study.
