Beginner Aerial Hammock

About this event

Discover the joy of aerial hammock, also known as aerial sling, a wonderfully versatile and supportive apparatus! This class is designed for anyone new to aerial dance, offering a gentle yet effective introduction to the world of aerial arts. In this class, you'll explore the unique benefits of the aerial hammock. Unlike vertical apparatuses like silks or rope, the closed loop of fabric provides immediate support, making it an ideal starting point for building confidence and strength in the air. We'll begin each session with a comprehensive warm-up and a series of strength and flexibility exercises specifically designed to prepare your body for aerial movement. You'll learn how to gracefully enter and exit the hammock, mastering foundational moves, shapes, and tricks. Our focus will be on building the core skills and pathways that are essential for your progression to more advanced aerial hammock levels. No prior aerial hammock experience is required. Worried about the aerial part of aerial hammock? We also offer aerial yoga classes that utilize a lower hammock to access grounded poses and build strength and flexibility. Try it out and when you're ready to fly we'll be here!
