Youth Aerial Level 1
with Emily

This is a Youth Intermediate Level,  mixed-apparatus class, for students ages 7-12. Are they ready to take their skills to the next level? Building from the foundations from the Youth Intro to Aerial class. Students will learn more dynamic varieties of moves, tricks, and techniques with silks, lyra, and sling to enhance their skill sets for staying in the air longer and sequencing moves together.
