Intro to Silks

• In Intro to Silks, students ages 8 and up will be taught the foundation skills to begin their aerial silks studies. A great class to start out with, this class is only open to students who have never taken aerial classes, are still working toward their COAA "book," or have taken more than three months off and need to review. 

​
Into the Hammock

• In this class, we walk students through our fundamental skills on an aerial hammock. We'll move more slowly, with more variations and breakdowns and time spent on each skill. Great for the student who wants to take things more slowly, those still working toward their strength goals, and meant for everyBODY. Adults only,

Level 1+ Aerial Silks

• In Level 1+ Aerial Silks, students will continue grow on their foundational skills and start learning more advanced skills that require a foundation on the fabric and body awareness.

Aerial Yoga

• Yoga in the air! Aerial Yoga offers a restorative approach to aerial arts. This class is taught like an aerial Vinyasa, utilizing a hammock-style silk to move through yoga poses with a little extra support. This class is lower to the ground than aerial silks and requires zero aerial or yoga experience. All levels are welcome! Recommended for ages 15 and up, please contact us for approvals for younger students. Modifications will be provided when needed. Please bring a yoga mat to class.
