Progressive Fundamentals of Partner Acrobatics

With Scott Dare & Stacie Bogle

Join us for an intermediate-level partner acrobatics workshop focused on building clean technique, communication, and confidence in standing-based partner work.

You’ll walk away with progressive drills to develop and improve hand-to-hand, foot-to-hand, standing poses, and dynamic entries. Emphasis will be placed on alignment, efficiency, timing, and safe progressions for both bases and flyers.

This workshop is designed for students with prior partner acro or acrobatic movement experience looking to deepen their understanding of standing partner acro and refine their technique.

About the Coach

Shaped by the landscapes of the American West, Stacie Bogle’s work is deeply influenced by the stark deserts of Arizona where she was raised, the verdant forests of Oregon where they came of age, and the sprawling urban ecosystem they now call home in Chicago. The rhythms, textures, and contrasts of these environments inform her movement, inspiring an acrobatic practice that explores resilience, interdependence, and adaptation. Specializing in partner acrobatics and aerial hoop, Stacie creates performances that echo the balance found in nature where strength and softness coexist. A 2024 graduate of Aloft Circus Arts, Stacie approaches circus arts as a way to investigate connection: between bodies, landscapes, and the forces that shape them.

Scott Dare is a Chicago based circus and physical theatre artist specializing in partner acrobatics and the Frantic Assembly devising method. He loves creating through collaboration and finding story in movement. In addition to his circus pursuits, Scott holds a Masters degree in Contemporary Theatre from Royal Holloway, University of London, and a Black belt in traditional martial arts with the ISKA. He’s appeared on stages in Germany, England, Scotland, and has toured nationally. Favorite collaborations include working with Aloft, People’s Circus Theatre, Actors Gymnasium, Physical Theatre Festival, Theater Unspeakable, and Broken Planet Show. More at scottjdare.com.
