Our Aerial Arts program helps students build strength, confidence, and body awareness in a supportive, safety-focused environment. Using aerial silks (and other apparatus as students advance), classes are designed to meet students where they are and guide them through a clear, structured progression.
Students don’t just learn tricks — they develop coordination, resilience, and self-trust as they grow stronger and more capable in the air. Each level builds on the one before it, so students feel prepared, confident, and safe as skills become more advanced.
Our goal is long-term growth, not rushed progress. We focus on strong foundations, safe technique, and helping every student feel proud of what their body can do.
The dress code for all participants is a unitard or leotard with form fitting pants, leggings or footless tights. No jewelry is allowed. Hair must be pulled up away from face.

What’s the Difference Between Aerial Silks and Lyra?
Both Aerial Silks and Aerial Lyra help students build strength, confidence, and body awareness — but they feel very different in the air.
Both apparatuses build strength, coordination, and confidence. Some students naturally prefer the feeling of fabric, while others love the stability of the hoop. There’s no “better” option — just different ways to move and grow in the air. Many students enjoy trying both over time as they develop new strengths and preferences. Our coaches are happy to help guide you toward the best starting point based on your child’s age, comfort level, and goals.
Aerial Silks
Silks use two long pieces of fabric that hang from the ceiling. Students learn to climb, wrap, and create shapes while supported by the fabric.
Silks is great for students who:
Aerial Lyra (Hoop)
Lyra uses a steel hoop suspended in the air. Students sit, hang, and move around the bar while learning poses, transitions, and combinations.
