WHAT IS THE APPRENTICE PROGRAM |
This program is geared towards recreational and pre-professional training in performing arts, both from the production’s front and backend. It is a contract that consist of technique classes in aerials and acrobatics combined with practice sessions. Supplemental benefits and opportunities include membership in RKP's performing team, the Orange County Aerial Arts (OCAA), and opportunities to render demonstrations at several popular venues and community events including the OC Fair, Festival of the Arts - Laguna Beach, Newport Beach Filmfest, South Coast Plaza's Festival of Children, Thousand Lights @ Sherman Gardens and more. The program also prepares the apprentice for a single competition event at the West Coast Aerial Arts Festival.
Additionally, the apprentice learns added skills not offered to regular students, including ground acrobatics, circus arts, contortion, hand manipulation skills, acro-adagio/ acro-gymnastic partnering, and dance movement in many forms.
Lastly, the apprentice gets to have a one-on-one goal oriented discussion with us and undergoes a yearly placement examination to secure academic growth and maturity in the specific discipline/s they have chosen. It is also in this program where the student is prepped for higher education or professional undertakings.

1st video: Showcases Ruby's choreography especially made for Maddie Seay who won her category at the West Coast Aerial Arts festival. Since 2017, the introduction of hip drop and momentum technique in Silks (aka Tissu) became the trend in the aerial community. Maddie has won all competition entries at the WCAAF and Vivafest since she was 10 years old - all of which were choreographed by Ruby Karen. Many other competition routines have placed 1, 2, 3 including Overall and Choreography awards.
