2 Classes and Levels The classes in the festival are broken down into four levels. It s important that people find their right level, not just for themselves, but for the pacing of the class for others too. You may be advanced in one class, but an explorer in another! Explorers: If this is your first time in the air, if you don t know a straddle from a side-pickup, then this is the level for you. All classes are tailored for those who just want to give it a go. This year we have a special week-long package aimed just at Explorers. Improvers: If you have caught the flying bug but are still very much learning your trade, this is your level. Typically these classes are for those who train in aerial at least two hours per week. Skilled: This is for confident and competent aerialists who know their stuff. If you are looking to improve your technique and find your own creative voice in the air, well, you ve found your level right here. You ll need to make a video of skills to get into these classes. About the Irish Aerial Dance Fest Since it began in 200 the Irish Aerial Dance Fest (IADF) has been teaching people how to fly. It is now the biggest event of its type in Europe, and what started as a niche festival for professional performers and serious hobbyists is now attracting more and more people completely new to the art form. Founded by Fidget Feet, Ireland s leading aerial dance company, in association with An Grianán Theatre and the Donegal County Council, the IADF brings together aerial tutors from Ireland s emerging aerial scene with internationally renowned performers from some of the world s leading companies. 208 is the first year to work in cooperation with the Earagail Arts Festival. The IADF offers a range of courses, from one day taster sessions for beginners to full two week passes that provide a veritable aerial Disneyland for those looking to squeeze every last ounce out of the experience. Accommodation and social activities are also arranged. Visit for more. Advanced: For professionals or highly skilled practitioners only. These are exclusive classes taught by internationally renowned tutors. You ll need to make a video of skills to get into these classes. 2
