Register for your class ahead of time via our booking system. Arrive a few minutes before your class. Go past the velvet curtain to find the aerial training area. You’ll remove your shoes and put your things in a cubby. Your class will begin when the teacher starts a group warmup. There will be 3-12 people in your aerial class, max 2 people per apparatus. During instruction all training is optional, you can choose to push yourself or take it easy. There will be a short cool down at the end of the class.
We know trying something new can be scary! Please reach out with any concerns or questions at info@salemcircus.com. We promise if you try it, you will walk away feeling joyful and welcomed.
