Looking for a fun way to keep your child active and entertained this fall? Our Youth Aerial Program is the perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon! With a range of levels and highly experienced instructors, each program is designed with the comfort and enrichment of your child in mind.

Beginner level classes (ages 7-10) are perfect for your child’s introduction to silks. In just a couple of months, they’ll be taught to swing, climb, hang, form intricate poses, and even move through smooth combinations. In our small group classes, we’ll get to know your child’s individual skill level so that training is tailored to their best interest, whether this means just boosting self esteem or really honing in on strength and flexibility.
Intermediate level classes (ages 8-11) are there for when your child has mastered silk basics and is ready for a new challenge. Students should have the ability to do footlocks and climb confidently. They’ll continue to build confidence in their strength while also benefiting from the enrichment of higher skills.

Classes will be offered in two sessions this fall:
Session 1: September 20- October 11, 2025
Session 2: October 18- November 15, 2025
