Aerial Silks - Beginners and Advanced Beginners

This is a 12 week course in Aerial silks for beginners and advanced beginners.

September 19th - December 12th, 2024
(1 week break for October mid-term Oct 28th - Nov 3rd)

This class is for adults who are looking for a unique way of exercising while having fun- some of our students have come from different exercise backgrounds such as couch potato, pole, CrossFit, yoga, dance and gymnastics. We welcome all levels of fitness to our classes.

What to expect in your Beginner and Advanced Beginner Aerial Silks Class:
In every class there will be different conditioning exercises that build up the required strength needed for this discipline. Week by week, students will develop strength, co-ordination, flexibility and confidence. You may even learn how to do a drop or two! Students will also be encouraged to show off their creativity with the new sequences they learn.

Beginners - You will learn the basic building blocks of aerial silks such as climbs, footlocks and going upside-down. We cover sequences close to the floor and in aerial cocoon, where the body is supported by the apparatus in a loop.

Advanced Beginners - In this level, we will work on more challenging sequences from footlock and hip-key and continue to develop strength and co-ordination in the air. We will explore inversions and build on the strength required to complete these from the ground and maybe even in the air.

Are there any pre-requirements to attend?
No experience necessary, beginner friendly.

What Should You Bring?
Long tight fitting clothing is best, e.g. leggings and tight upper layers. Avoid hoodies and loose clothing that might hinder vision when upside-down. No jewellrey or watches. No zips on clothing, including small zips on leggings, as these can snag on the silks and damage the equipment.
