Class Description
Introductory level aerial arts classes are now always available! We also will offer some occasional skill-specific classes that are open to brand new beginners as well!
Each introductory class will cover two different apparatus – a mix of aerial silks, aerial sling, and dance trapeze. After taking 4-6 classes and with instructor permission, students who are familiar with all the foundational skills required move to Level 2 of their chosen apparatus(es).
As of May 1, 2022 classes are available at the following times. Students may attend as many times per week as they wish, or spread their intro experience out over a longer time!
