For the first time we are also running a Youth (ages 11 - 14) Aerial Teaser.

Drop-in / Trial Classes for Kids and Youth
As we slowly reopen the studio with all new policies and procedures in the world of COVID-19, we have had to reimagine our Kids’ (ages 7 - 10) and Youth (ages 11 - 14) programs. We’ve welcomed some of our more experienced Youth into our regular stream adult aerial classes this summer and fall, and we’ve also spent this time learning to adapt our teaching styles and curriculum to support safe aerial programs without the use of hands-on spotting, especially for younger kids who developmentally have less body awareness and control, and a harder time focusing on spoken instructions and cues.
Starting the week after Thanksgiving we are offering our new Circus Play (ages 7 - 10) and Youth Aerials (ages 11 - 14) classes as weekly, pre-registered drop-in classes (you don’t have to register for a series) for the rest of the month so you can try the classes out before committing to a series in the November/December Term. Youth Clinics are for our experienced returning Youth, and we’re running one Intro to Youth Teaser on Monday, October 26. No experience required for the Circus Play class, just a sense of fun and adventure.
Halloween is going to look very different this year. Looking for something fun and safe to do with a few of your close friends?
