AerialSling
Unlike Silks, which uses two separate strands of fabric suspended from a single point, Aerial Sling is a looped piece of fabric that hangs from the ceiling that you can move, invert, and perform poses on.
Often seen as the happy medium between our hard apparatuses and silks, sling offers the softness of the fabrics as the apparatus medium, but the easier entry barrier of the horizontal surface with the loop for even the most beginner student. Come explore the fun world of wraps, drops, and Sling theory while building your stength, grace, and body awareness!
Let’s talk levels

Aerial Yoga
Aerial Yoga class is for both absolute beginners. The class is designed using the sling combined with a regular yoga (vinyasa) class. The combination allows access to more poses and assists with alignment, balance, strength and inversions. This class will cover all the basics so students can feel safe in the air and more centered on the ground. This class focuses on restorative movement, not skills or tricks, to open hips, shoulders, hamstrings and back while also building core and body awareness for full body wellness.
