Group Classes Overview - moving to Vertex Climbing Center in 2024

Welcome to the graceful and deceptively difficult art of aerial silks ! 

Our classes are 60 minutes and include focused warm-ups, conditioning, and cool-downs.
Exercises on the floor and with the apparatuses will highlight the fundamental body positions needed for safe and successful aerial practices. Clean and proper form is as important as the ability to execute moves safely. We understand we’re returning from a LONG break, so please arrive with kindness and patience for yourself and each other. 

A maximum of 6 students (or 6 for Kids!) can participate per class. Students must register a minimum of 12 hours in advance. 
There is a 12 hour cancellation/reschedule policy.

Dress Code Policy

  • The fabrics and hoop can burn or bruise exposed skin, so fitted pants or leggings and a long or short-sleeved shirt that covers armpits and middrifts are strongly recommended. Tank tops are not recommended.

  • Clothing should NOT have zippers or velcro, as they can catch or snag.

  • Jewelry, especially rings, should be removed before class.

  • Hair should be tied back from face.

  • Wear deodorant. The fabrics pick up smells very easily, so practicing good hygiene is important and courteous to the studio and your fellow students.

  • Socks are not recommended for silks; while practicing in socks is possible, they can make movement in the fabric challenging.
