Frequently asked questions.

This is a very personal topic and varies from person to person. It can depend on your previous sports background, lifestyle, how much you will find one of these apparatus easier or harder.
However most people tend to find the Hammock and Hoop easier to start with than the Silks. Silks can be more demanding in terms of strength if you are just starting. Hammock is usually a great start and preparation before joining or trying silks classes. We recommend trying all these three arts in the beginning and perhaps choosing one or two to focus in, that resonates and you enjoy more personally.

Our Studio is NOT ladies only, and as for the moment we do not have Ladies only Classes.
However and on the above topic, a male presence is extremely rare and as practitioners of Aerial Arts. We do work with ladies who wish for a ladies only environment, in this sense we are considerate. We do not accept walk ins, and our bookings close 1 hour before. If this would be a concern we can always let you know if there is a male presence booked in - which again is extremely rare.
We also have curtains installed at the Studio for more privacy.
-
If you are just starting or have little experience the indicated class is Intro & Level 1.
For Level 2 above classes, kindly refer to our “Classes” tab to check the prerequisites information. If you attend a Level 2 + class without the necessary preparation and/or experience your instructor has the right to redirect you and decline the teachings on that day.
All levels Classes are open to ALL.
In case of doubt feel free to contact us directly.

Please bare in mind that even thou Straps is Open to all levels, this art is probably one of (if not the most) demanding and challenging of all.
From start practicing straps would require a certain amount of upper body strength. You will most certainly work on the required strength on the class. You can expect a great workout with lots of conditioning involved.

All classes must be booked in advance (latest 1 hour in advance) through our Website or Application.

HOOP, SILK & HAMMOCK
We encourage students to wear fitted clothing that covers the back of their knees and torso for all aerial classes. This will help avoiding burns, scratches, caused by friction from the fabric or hoop.
FLEXIBILITY
We recommend athletic attire that is stretchable and you feel comfortable moving in. You can also bring leg/back warmers and knee pads.
ALL CLASSES
We have a water dispenser available and therefore we recommend you to bring your own bottle of water. We have limited extra mats available at the studio so we ask you to please bring your own mat and towel.

Please leave your jewelry at home. It can cause damage to our apparatuses and you will be held responsible. It is also a safety hazard if your jewelry becomes caught on any aerial equipment. You will not be allowed to wear any jewelry in any of our aerial classes.

There are always risks involved with any physical activity but aerial dance is really no more dangerous than any other sport or movement training. Our instructors work hard to manage any risk and keep students as safe as possible. We have a structured curriculum that allows students to progress at a safe pace and focuses on proper technique and injury prevention.
Proper crash mats are used and equipment is inspected frequently. Your safety is always our first priority.
