Aerial Silks Classes
Aerial Silks is an art that is rapidly gaining popularity as not only a medium for artistic expression but as an alternative workout tool. The origins of this art are found in the realm of circus schools. Silks remained relatively unknown by the general public until the late 1990s when two contortionists performed in the popular and long-running show Quidam for Cirque Du Soleil.
Since becoming known to the general public, more and more dancers, gymnasts, and performers from other aerial disciplines have experimented with the art of aerial silks. High-level mastery of aerial silks requires excellent body control, strength, and artistic expression.
Students of any age and physical fitness level can benefit from training with our aerial silks classes. It is a great way to increase upper body strength, cardiovascular stamina, core conditioning, flexibility, and body awareness.
Static poses on aerial silks require full-body stabilization and passive flexibility. Dynamic movements often require a full range of motion through the joint, which will increase dynamic flexibility. Nearly all movements and poses use a high level of core control, which facilitates body awareness.
**Our aerial silks classes are offered only at our Woodlands location for children ages 8 & up.
