Aerial Silks - Absolute Beginners
Have you ever wanted to fly? Run away with the circus? Perhaps try out the beautiful art form of aerial silks? Well here is your chance! This is a class for absolute beginners that will start right at the basics and teach you the fundamentals of aerial silks. This class will help to build core elements while building your your strength, endurance and flexibility in order to gain the knowledge and confidence to move onto the beginner aerial silks classes.
