To join our Circus classes, students need to understand the principles of aerial acrobatics and build the muscles you need to fly! We welcome all circus newbies to join an Aerial Circus 101 class to learn the necessary prerequisites before joining our open-level apparatus classes. We also invite you to join any of our 101 workshops (Silks 101 & Lyra 101) in order to learn specific skills.
Silks 101 & Lyra 101 workshops educate both complete beginners and students who would like a refresher on the basics of Silks & Lyra. These workshops will prepare students for all other
levels of silks and lyra by teaching them specific skills and how to safely condition their new aerial muscles on & off the ground.
Small class size creates a supportive, safe & fun environment. Weekly attendance is encouraged to promote progressive learning — however, drop-ins are also welcome.
Meant for advanced beginners and up, silk aerialists will practice the building blocks of proper aerial technique and learn to execute wraps, drops, sequences, and flows. Newer silks students can come to work on inversions, cross-back straddle, catchers wraps, hip key sequences and s-wraps, while more advanced students can focus on layering tricks together mixed with difficult conditioning and lengthy air time. Weekly attendance is encouraged to promote progressive learning and to build on an entire sequence over time — however, drop-ins are also welcome.
Prerequisites:
Permission from the instructor is required to waive prerequisites.
Students new to Silks should begin with a Silks 101 workshop or an Aerial Circus 101 class.
Lyra classes focus on developing the upper body, core & grip strength necessary to move your body with ease around and within the hoop. Our lyra classes will focus on transitions and tricks that will make you fall in love with the apparatus, as well as finding the grace and ease to transition between them. Instructors will provide advanced conditioning exercises, as well as the opportunity for the student to learn dynamic movements and spin.
Prerequisites:
Students new to Lyra should begin with a Lyra 101 workshop or with an Aerial Circus 101 class.
Circus Single-Point Hammock puts a "spin" on our traditional hammock based aerial yoga classes by adding a circus swivel to the hammock! Aerialists can flow through tricks and sequences in the single point hammock, building strength and endurance while working on fluidity and grace. This class is ideal for aerial yogis with a steady practice, or advanced beginner and up circus students.
Prerequisites:
Permission from the instructor is required to waive prerequisites.
Students new to Single-Point Hammock should begin with an Aerial Yoga or Aerial Circus 101 class.
90-120 minutes (Drop-Ins welcome)
