Between the Lines
Between the Lines explores what great movement teaching is really made of.
Using aerial arts as the starting point, we dive into the often-overlooked factors that shape learning: fear, confidence, motor learning, coaching, nervous system science, movement quality, communication, trust, and the culture we create in our classrooms.
Whether you're an aerial instructor, movement coach, or simply fascinated by how people learn complex skills, this podcast goes beyond tricks and technique to uncover what actually helps students thrive.
Hosted by aerial educator Sara Kaiser.
Between the Lines
The joy & responsibility of working with absolute beginners
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In the final episode of our 3-part series devoted to beginners, we explore the emotional landscapes of new students and experienced instructors.
We consider how respecting the art form develops appreciation for the significance of the teaching role itself, fostering self-respect, and how caring for the art form helps us better care for our students as well.
We take you back to your first ever class, and explore how it informs your ever-evolving journey.
If you know teaching is more than a list of tricks, a job, a hobby, and you want the education and mentorship that can take you to the next level of your craft, check out the free training on the hidden gaps of aerial instruction and how we can close those gaps with the BLOOM Aerial teacher training - linked below.
