Join the 2023 Wondrous Wombats Performance Crew!
If you want support throughout the choreography creation process, this series is for you. You’ll have instructors to guide you and a whole wisdom of supportive wombats cheering you on!
This is for ALL LEVELS. Seriously!
Lead by Fiora Wild (Whintey) and Rey Soley (Christina), this series will guide you through making a performance that you’ll love. Bond with your fellow Wombats as you brainstorm, develop, and polish your routine. Whether you want to try something fun and new, tell your story on the big stage, or just bond with your fellow wombats, this series will help you nail those goals.
The format will be 4 content classes and 4 assisted practice sessions, alternating. Content classes provide new information to help you build your routine, while practice sessions are open pole sessions with Christina or Whitney present to provide support while you work on your choreography.

Conceptualize & Explore
We will discuss how to select tricks that are appropriate for your routine, prompted freestyling to your music, how to break your song down into parts, and how to start placing passes and tricks into your routine.
Assisted Practice
This is time to continue to get to know your song and find places in your song where you want to place specific movements or tricks.
Connection
This week will cover how to expand on your passes and turn your individual tricks into combos, as well as how to build connection with your audience, and figuring out how to make your routine unique.
Assisted Practice
This second practice session is ideal for building out the bulk of your choreography.
Polish
with Christina
This class will teach you about using your extremities, taking your time, smoothing out your transitions, putting the polish on your audience engagement, and the value of marking your routine.
Assisted Practice
This session should be used to fill any gaps in your choreography, as well as working through any passes or transitions that feel awkward or clunky.
Finalize
This class will focus on asking for and providing specific feedback to your fellow wombats, then working on the final tweaks to your routine.
Dress Rehearsal
Our final session will be a Dress Rehearsal where you can put everything together, and get some performance jitters out. It is encouraged to wear your costume, use your actual props, and have your hair/make-up done.
