About This Activity
Description
This class bridges the transition from silks in the knot to open fabric, helping students develop the strength and coordination needed for more complex aerial skills. Students will also begin exploring lyra (aerial hoop), learning fundamental bar apparatus techniques. With a focus on building strength, flexibility, and proprioceptive awareness, both on the ground and in the air, this class provides a fun and supportive environment for young aerialists to grow in skill and confidence!
A waiver must be signed before participating in the first class.
Please note, Aerial Silks enrollment comes with a NO REFUND and NO MAKE UP class requirement due to the equipment required. Once a student is enrolled they are responsible for the full tuition for that session, regardless of any other circumstances.
All Dancers in Aerial and Circus Dance (silks, Lyra, Trapeze, etc.) must comply with the dress code. This is to prevent injury such a burns, to keep dancers safe and secure, and to protect the equipment. Dancers will often be upside down, and must dress accordingly. Ladies must wear a sports bra or leotard with a secure shelf bra. Leggings or tight fitting pants or tights that cover the back of the knee. Absolutely no zippers or jewelry, they can catch on the fabric and damage the equipment. No bare legs or stomachs. Dance tights with shorts is acceptable. Tops that cover the armpits are preferred. Shirts must be long enough to be tucked in securely. Keep a long sleeve shirt in your bag to wear for ticks that involve the silk being wrapped over arms. Hair must be pulled up and out of the face. Bring an extra hair tie to pull hair into a bun as needed. Pack a Water bottle! See our information on dress code, policies, etc. for more information.
