Our current age range of students for our adult classes is 15 years and older. Our kids' classes are for 7 to 14 year old students.
Please expect to start class on time, starting with warm-ups. Then move on to the lesson of the day.
We teach all levels of students. So we might have some beginner and more intermediate/advance students in the same class.
Announcing Classes
Our typical class schedule is listed below and can be seen on Acuity when booking classes. These are subject to change according to the gym's schedule, the instructors' personal schedules, and holidays. The schedule is released for all students on the Second Saturday of the month at 12 p.m.; parents on our email list will receive an email announcing these classes, and a social media post will be made to announce the schedule release to everyone. So please keep an eye out on our social media for announcements! We also post when there are openings in classes for the day or a few days before when someone cancels or reschedules.
Clothing
Please come wearing tight-fitting clothing (i.e., yoga pants, leggings, athletic tops, etc.) that covers your legs and abdomen accordingly. You will be wrapping silks around your body or your body around a metal bar, so please avoid any bare skin on legs, torso, and abdomen. Please do not wear any jewelry or watches to classes. Also, do NOT wear any clothing with zippers or large sequins, as this will tear the silks. Please avoid wearing any perfumes or lotions as these can stain the silks.
Waivers
Before taking a class, you need to fill out a waiver with Aerial Ambitions (in person) and with Motive (online). We will have our waivers ready for you to fill out when you show up for class. You can access the Motive waiver on their website.
Signing Up for Classes
For classes, you can sign up online; see the link below. You can sign up for classes up to 1 hour before class starts. If you are unable to attend class, please notify us via email or Instagram, and then cancel the class through the scheduling software. You can cancel class up to 24 hours before the class starts. You should be able to do so in the email sent to you after you've signed up for class. If you do not show up for class with no notification, you will still be charged for that class, as it could have been a spot for another student looking to take that class.
Payments can be made online when you sign up for class. We do offer class packages: 5 or 10 class package. Those are available for purchase on our Acuity class sign-up site. Please keep track of your package code, as this will help you sign up using the packages. We recommend you have an account on Acuity before purchasing any classes or packages, as this will be easier for you to keep track of what classes you have signed up for and how many classes are left in your packages.
Cancelation Policy
We do not offer refunds for classes. If you are canceling a class and you have not used a class package to book the class, you will be sent a reschedule code to use to sign up for a different class. Codes will be good until the end of the year. They will be one-time-use codes that can be used at checkout when booking classes. If you have a class package and cancel a class, that class will return back to your class package to use for another class.
Aerial Silks
Aerial Silks is taught on a fabric apparatus that is open at the bottom. This is different from Aerial Sling, which has a loop at the bottom. In our Silks classes, you will work on conditioning, form, flexibility, and strength in the air. You will gain the knowledge to be able to tie into and out of the silks, and perform skills/drops in a safe manner. We highly recommend you come to class with long leggings and shirts you can tuck into your leggings to protect your skin from silk burns.
Lyra / Aerial Hoop
Lyra is a hard bar apparatus in the shape of a circle. Lyra classes consist of learning moves and poses around the hoop. This will consist of moves at the bottom of the hoop, in the hoop, at the top of the hoop, and at the spanset of the hoop. All the skills taught in class are to allow the student to progress through skills, transitions, spins, and dynamic movements in a controlled, safe, and practiced manner.
Acro Yoga
Acro Yoga or Acro, is a partner-based class. Partners are not required when coming to class, as you'll be paired and rotated throughout the class. This class specifically teaches "L" base acro. The class is taught in groupings of 3 as much as possible. This consists of the base, flyer, and spotter. Within the class, students will work on strength, flexibility, balance, and lots of trust. There will be poses and flows taught within the classes.
Madelyn's Silks Movement
This dynamic class blends conditioning, flow, and technique to help students build strength, control, and artistry in the air. Expect a thoughtful progression of movement that challenges your body while encouraging creative expression. Recommended Skill: Participants should be comfortable tying a Figure-8 footknot, either on the ground or in the air.
Lyra Movement
This class is all about learning to move and flow through the Lyra. We will be doing movements, sequences, making your own sequences, and fun games that involve feelings, descriptive words, characters, and even music changes. This class is to allow you the time to become comfortable moving through shapes on the Lyra. Recommended Skill: Participants should be comfortable getting in and out of the hoop, and being in the air for several minutes at a time.
