Online Rope Courses

I have built two online rope courses; Introduction to Momentum and The Breakbeat Breakdown. These courses are fully online and fully self directed courses, in that once you enroll in the course you have access to the information forever so you can work thorough this material as quickly or leisurely as you like.

The material in these courses is shown on aerial rope, but all of the skills and technique can be performed on fabric as well.

The courses are broken down into several units containing 27 video lessons each and sandwiched by an introduction and a conclusion. Each unit has a narrow focus and builds on the previous information.

She regularly consults with physical therapists on the best and most current exercises for pre-hab and injury prevention.
