One 4-week session of Aerial Basics or Aerial Fitness (or prior training) is required to enroll in the apparatus classes: (Trapeze, Fabric, Hoop & Spanish Web). Private instruction is also available to prepare you for these classes.

Aerial Basics:
An excellent introduction to Aerial Dance utilizing a variety of aerial apparatuses to learn a beautiful and effective way to dance and work out that isn't possible without each apparatus while gaining strength and proper technique.

Aerial Fitness:
Work out the FUN way! Utilizing 2 or more different types of aerial apparatuses in each class, exercises designed to improve strength & flexibility will be performed in the space between the ground and apparatus & on the apparatus with levels of difficulty to suit each individual. An Exciting, Effective way to become the "ultimate you"! No experience necessary.

Trapeze:
The trapeze is suspended from the ceiling at a single (or double) point with 2 ropes coming down to a bar at about shoulder height. The dancer can dance between the ground and the bar, up on the bar, or climb up for loops & ropework, thus making dancing in the space above ground possible. Other types of trapezes will also be usedl, making this the most versatile apparatus.

Fabric: (Low, Moderate, & High levels)
Silk fabric is suspended from the ceiling enabling the dancer to dance in the air using the fabric.

Hoop (Lyra):
A hoop is suspended from the ceiling and can be at any height. Gorgeous dance movements can be achieved using this apparatus. Many believe this to be the most graceful of all apparatuses.

Spanish Web:
A long white rope suspended from the ceiling, (similar to those in gym class but softer), the "web" forms as the dancer wraps the rope around him/ herself while moving into various positions. Amazing spinning and circling moves are also performed by attaching a hand/foot loop. It really is like flying!

Bungee Dance, Swing Line, & Giant Swing: No experience needed. Harnesses are provided or you may bring your own.
Bungee: 2 bungee loops are suspended from the ceiling which the dancer harnesses into and is then able to dance and flip in the air without being a gymnast!

Swing Line and Giant Swing:
A static rope is suspended from the ceiling which the dancer harnesses into and is then able to flip, swing, & circle while dancing in the air. Develop core strength the easy, fun way! Form the Giant Swing by harnessing into 2 lines and thus be able to dance and flip while flying across the room securely harnessed in! Great Fun!
