Straight-Arm Inversions Are a Rite of Passage.
Some students make it through and others get stuck and feel frustrated for years. How you coach it MATTERS not just to your students' progress, but also to their self-belief and if they feel like they truly fit into aerial culture.
It's too easy to pass the buck to your students and blame them for their lack of straight-arm success... To say they don't work hard enough or aren't committed.
But the reality is that they are taking their cues from you. They won't believe if you don't believe in them. And you won't believe in them if you don't know how to get them from point A to point B.
So it's time to get started...
Why the Inversion Conversion Method?
When I started training aerial over a decade ago, it was wild. Most of the knowledge we have today either didnât exist or wasnât easily accessible.
If your coach said "do a thing," you either trusted them blindly and did it... or you didnât do aerial. Because those were your choices.
No one was there to tell me what was safe for my shoulders or how to gain overhead mobility. And surprise, surprise... I got injured. Badly. The doctors weren't exactly sure what was causing my pain, but I couldn't raise my left arm over my head and my shoulder would sublux in my sleep.
The amazing part is that I found a TEAM of movement professionals who I relied on as a sounding board as I self-rehabbed my shoulder. I radically altered my approach and learned everything I could about human movement. I became a Gyrotonic trainer. I studied nutrition. I got various movement certifications. I went ALL the fuck in. And it worked.
Today, you are so lucky. You donât have to be a pioneer. There is so much information ready for the taking.
Speaking of ready, I'm ready to share the things I have learned about biomechanics, mobility, strength training, and more so that your students can skip a lot of the pain that I went through.
Coaches don't have to wonder if what they're doing is wrecking their students.
Here's How It Works:
- You get 10 LESSONSÂ on coaching straight-arm inverts delivered straight to your inbox over the course of 14 days.
- The lessons tackle different aspects of the motion that you can then TRY OUT on your own body and integrate into your coaching.
- My goal for you is to UNDERSTAND what's not working in different bodies & why, so that you can coach the hell out of it & GET RESULTS.
Hi, I'm your coach, Jessica Johnđđť
I'm the founder of Circus Mobility. I stumbled upon circus as an adult, and I was hooked from my first aerial silks class. At that time, I was a leadership analyst at the CIA with a weird hobby. Slowly but surely I allowed that weird hobby to take over my life. I became an aerialist and eventually a master coach to aerial teachers all over the globe.
My coaching philosophy is evidence-based and multidisciplinary, addressing technical, strength, mobility, nutrition, mindset, and creative challenges as they arise. I use sport and exercise psychology theoretical frameworks to design performance programs that help my clients achieve their goals through habit-based change. My practice is applied and practical, aimed at helping driven aerialists reach their highest potential.
You're here because you want more options. You're sick of feeling unsure if what you're teaching is the best approach or if it's connecting with your students.
You know that you want to be a better coach. Well, you're in the right place. You're my people.
Frequently Asked Questions
Â
Who is Inversion Conversion Method Lite for exactly?
It is for aerial coaches who want to get better at teaching straight-arm inverts. The inversion is a foundational aerial movement that has different strength and mobility demands depending on the individual. It is not a progression of the bent-arm invert. It is its own related skill.
What's the catch? Are you selling something?
This 14-day course is completely free. You are NOT on the hook to buy anything. Honestly, I created this course because I wish the information had existed for my coach when I was killing my body trying to straight-arm invert. đ˘ You'll leave the course with clarity, direction, and knowing what you need to get better at as a teacher to get better results for your students.
