In this special, intergenerational class, we invite families to have fun and explore movement while learning aerial hammock together. Kids and Youth ages 7-17 can join this class with a parent, grandparent, caregiver, or other responsible adult to learn in a fun, collaborative, environment. Up to two kids or youth can join with each adult (if you'd like to request an exception to this ratio, please reach out to the studio before registering). Family members who reside at the same address get a 10% discount for each additional person registering (e.g. adult pays full price, each related child that lives at the same address gets 10% off).

This class will focus on Aerial Hammock as the primary aerial apparatus and will also feature play based warm-up and ground based skills and even some partner skills that families can work on together. Skills taught will be tailored to the age, ability, and experience of the students. No experience required.

Please note, there will be apparatus sharing in this class.

Split Level Classes: This is a split level curriculum class which means there may be students from the Beginner and Intermediate Aerial Silks curriculum levels in this class. If you are not sure what level you are at, please speak to your instructor or inquire with reception before registering. All students in split level classes will receive individualized instruction at their current level. See the Beginner and Intermediate Silks level descriptions for more information about each level.

Beginner Silks: Beginner Aerial Silks is the next step in a students journey after Intro to Fabric if they decide to join the Aerial Silks stream of the curriculum. Students will learn to tie footlocks, climb the silks, and begin to work on unsupported inverts and hipkeys as appropriate. Students will transfer some of their hammock poses to the footlock, while expanding their vocabulary substantially to include skills on double skills footlocks, single silks footlocks, inverted skills, and some fun extras! The idea of fabric theory is introduced and students will learn body flags and many variations. All students are unique and progress at their own pace, generally students should expect to spend 4-8 months minimum in the Beginner Silks level.

Intermediate Silks: Intermediate Aerial Silks represents an important transition point in a student's fabric journey. Students will begin to transition away from footlock based skills and develop their strength in knee hook and hipkey positions. Moving up and building on the skills and strength built in Beginner Silks, students in Intermediate Silks will work on moving skills up into the air, training their aerial inversions, learning more intricate wraps, and begin to work on introductory drops. Student’s fabric theory knowledge will expand greatly as they learn new wraps from the knee hook and hipkey positions as well as some completely novel positions. All students are unique and progress at their own pace, generally students should expect to spend 4-8 months minimum in the Intermediate Silks level.

Students entering Advanced Aerial Silks are expected to be familiar with wrapping from Knee Hooks and Hip Keys, Double and Triple Foot Wraps, more complex climbs, as well the wraps for foundational drops. Students should be working on strong drop form and control in their drops. Advanced Silks will introduce students to more difficult drops, including multi-plane drops and slack drops. There is an emphasis on the introduction of c-shaping and utilizing that strength in drops, wheel downs, and other movements.

To work on Masters level movements, students should be familiar with and have successfully completed the majority of the Advanced curriculum. The Masters level includes more complex fabric theory, increasingly difficult strength skills, stacked drops, and backwards dives.

This is a split level class. Students will progress through the curriculum at their own pace and will be presented with material appropriate for their individual level and progression.

Please note, there will be apparatus sharing in this class.
