Experienced Instructors
We have an award-winning team of certified and professional instructors who bring years of aerial training, coaching, and performance experience to every class. Students learn in a positive environment where both effort and growth are celebrated.
The results speak for themselves. Our coaches have guided students from their first class to remarkable opportunities, including a finalist appearance on Montana's Got Talent (Jacob C. shown below) and acceptance into a prestigious Cirque du Soleil training camp in Quebec (Alanna G). Whether a student dreams of performing on stage or simply wants to try something new, our instructors are committed to helping them reach their goals.

Reviews
I know these classes are amazing, but don't take my word for it. Here are some reviews from past parents I have worked with:
💜My daughter had a blast today. In fact, your class has done more for her self-confidence in one week than a year of social skill classes. Usually, we can't get her to come out of the closet, but this week, she woke up and did stretches first thing every morning. You have two very happy parents!
💜My daughter got so much more the aerial silks class. It was an amazing experience!
💜Mindy is an incredible instructor. The class is a great investment in improving my daughter's confidence and self-esteem. Absolutely love it.
💜You help my daughter to feel very special and loved! We want you to know how much you mean to us and how much we appreciate what you do!!
💜Thank you for all you do and for how much you care about every one of your students.
💜Incredible instructors. A great investment in improving confidence and self-esteem. Absolutely love it.
FAQ's
-
Does my child need experience? No experience required. Our classes are designed for beginners as well as students with previous aerial experience.
-
Does my child need to be strong or flexible? Not at all. Strength, flexibility, and coordination develop naturally through regular participation in class.
-
Can parents watch? Yes. Please escort your child into the studio on their first day if you have not completed the enrollment paperwork (or complete it ahead of time here). After that, you are welcome to stay and observe class or drop your child off and return at the end of the session.
-
What should they wear?
✔️ Ankle-length leggings (recommended to protect the skin)
✔️ A fitted shirt long enough to be tucked in will work, or a leotard is even better
❌ No gum, zippers, or jewelry as these can damage the silks and hoops
-
Are performances required? No. We will keep you appraised of performance opportunities if they are interested in performing, but participation is always optional.
