Aerial Arts
Get ready to soar with Aerial. Our classes are crafted to gear you up for the thrilling world of aerial arts. Build grip and core strength while focusing on the essential flexibility needed to work on aerial apparatuses — from lyra (hoop) to dynamic silks. Aerial training begins at age 8 with parental consent and an instructor evaluation.
