Flexy Fundamentals: Intro to Splits

​Flexy fundamentals: Intro to splits

​Join us on Tuesday Sep 9 to learn the fundamentals of stretching and splits with Jura Hau!

​Jura (they/ them) is a queer international aerialist, community organizer, coach, and massage therapist, from Canada now based here in Lisbon.  They have a background of over 8 years in personal training, coaching, and education in Kinesiology. 

​This workshop is designed for all levels of beginner flexibility, whether you can't touch your toes, or if you need some consistency in squaring your hips. 

​The workshop is 1.5 hrs long and has 45 minutes of theory and 45 minutes of practical, guided session.

​Limit 15 people to ensure that everyone gets the attention they need.

Bring a notebook!

​In the theory portion, we'll be able to go over how to design your own program for your own level, and troubleshoot particular areas of a split.
We will go over human anatomy, biomechanics of the split, and different progressions. This is perfect for those who may be stuck at a certain part, or those who don't know where to start. 

​In the practical guided portion, I'll lead you through my splits routine, which is a wonderful way to work your way through getting the strength and flexibility to safely achieve and eventually maintain your front and middle splits. 

​Jura also teaches every Saturday at Bus Paragem for beginner aerials, and Wednesday nights at Jaya Aerial Lab for mixed level straps. Connect with them @jurahau on IG.

They also co-run @Bi.Mosaic, a bi+ community events group based here in Lisbon!
