WORKSHOPS

“As a studio owner and aerial dancer for over 15 years, I have had the pleasure of working with many highly qualified coaches and Sable Stewart ranks as a standout amongst them. I really appreciate Sable’s mature approach to coaching and would highly recommend her to anyone who is interested in not just learning the newest trick that is the craze on social media, but rather mastering the body mechanics of foundational skills that will help any aerialist with the quality of their movement and longevity of their career. Focusing on minute details, Sable is able to clearly break down & ‘demystify tricks’, empowering students with tools to truly master the skills. Sable is very professional, generous with her time, demonstrates technical mastery of the skills and teaches with clear progressions, hyper focused on proper body mechanics for controlled movement and injury prevention. “
