Open aerial gym is a friendly, fun and safe place to work on established and developing skills, build community, get circus strong, and find new friends to collaborate with!
Open gym generally happens Fridays 5-7pm under the truss, but always check the calendar before attending, as it is sometimes affected by shows and other programming.
Attendance is free, but there is a suggested $10 donation for non-members to help cover the cost of annual rigging inspections and new equipment.
Who can practice:
- Current MCS aerial members; current MCS aerial members who have not tested in on a specific apparatus but received approval to practice it.
- Lapsed MCS aerial members who are not currently paying membership dues.
- Visiting aerialists who have received approval from the aerial board rep.
- Aerial students who take classes through MCS and have received explicit written approval from their instructor(s)
