Do I need to be strong or flexible to start?

No. Every adult beginner class starts from zero — we build strength and flexibility in class. Most students arrive with no aerial, pole or dance background at all.

Is there an age limit for adult classes?

Adult classes are open to ages 16 and up, and we regularly teach students in their 40s, 50s and 60s. Classes are capped at eight students so instruction is hands-on.

What is the best way to try adult classes?

The New Student Special gives you five classes for $76 to use within 90 days, so you can mix aerial silks, lyra, pole, aerial yoga and dance before committing.

Six ways to start flying

Not sure which one is for you? Most adults try two or three with the New Student Special before picking a favorite. Aerial yoga is the softest landing; pole and silks build strength fastest.

Your first hour

What actually happens when you walk in

1
Arrive 10 minutes early
Sign a quick waiver, meet your instructor and stash your bag. Wear leggings and a fitted top — bare skin behind the knees helps you grip.
2
Warm up together
A guided warm-up and conditioning block. No one is expected to already be strong; this is the part that builds it.
3
Get in the air
You will get on the apparatus in your very first class, with your instructor spotting. Everyone leaves having done something they didn't think they could.
