Our youth aerial hammock class is suitable for our younger aerialists aged 6-15. In this group you will learn to work with our aerial hammock for increased flexibility, strength building and impressive final poses. Aerial hammock works using a U shaped soft fabric hammock closer to the ground than the other more circus styles of aerial, and offers a balanced class suitable for most abilities. Our youth classes work with the hammock in a way more akin to Aerial Fusion classes than Aerial Yoga.This class really explores the versatility of hammock, while stopping short of the upper body strength needed for silks. Aerial is great for children who love to climb, be upside down, who are playful in their movement, or as a complimentary practice to gymnasts or dancers looking to explore new ways of moving. Aerial hammock is ideal for students who are nervous working at height, or who dislike the rigidity of the solid apparatus of hoop and trapeze.
In this group we will offer lots of modifications and variations on each pose to suit all abilities, ensuring no student feels left behind, however this class is specifically geared towards new starters in aerial hammock, we recommend our Thursday night class for more experienced aerialists.
Working one person to each hammock we will work with both grounded and air based movements to move your body in new ways. There is no shared equipment in this course allowing students to flow from pose to pose. Our aerial arts classes have a 21 stone/133kg weight limit.
Please get in touch if you have a health condition that could limit your participation. If you are reasonably fit and healthy (able to climb stairs, lift a heavy box, walk unaided then this class should suit most people). This class is not suitable to begin if you have active current vertigo, herniated or bulging spinal disks, glaucoma, arthritis which significantly limits your grip, are currently pregnant with no previous aerial experience or are within 6 weeks of giving birth. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive studio and welcome students beyond these safety limitations regardless of body type, fitness levels, physical limitations or disabilities or other restrictions. A free carers place is available for anyone who requires assistance to access our classes and is in receipt of middle or higher rate DLA or PIP. Please get in touch to discuss how we can ensure our classes are inclusive of your needs.
