About this event

Ages 8-16; students outside this age range are by teacher invitation only!

Safety: Many aerial studios and performance venues require performers to use safety-compliant equipment. History: The aerial hoop may have evolved from trapeze swinging and high wire acts, which came from gymnastics and acrobatics.

For beginners: Beginner classes focus on conditioning and learning core techniques.
