Pole
Pole is an aerial apparatus consisting of a 45mm pole (typically with a chrome finish) that can be either static or rotate on its axis. Modern pole dance comes from a very diverse history, originating from an eastern tradition that used thicker, wooden poles (as opposed to today’s metal ones) and becoming westernized in dance clubs to become the competitive superpower it is today.
Aerial Rope
Aerial Rope is an aerial apparatus comprised of a corded braid, suspended from the ceiling. It can be used with or without a hand grip to vary the visual appeal of the movement. This challenging apparatus combines strength, endurance, and physical tolerance.
Aerial Hoop
Lyra (or ‘aerial hoop’ or ‘cerceaux’) is an aerial apparatus comprised of a suspended, large, circular, metal ring. Aerialists use the lyra to exhibit strength and flexibility, sometimes incorporating rotational movement. In this class, students will learn various mounts and dismounts, small sequences of movement, below, inside, and above the hoop.
Static Trapeze
Static Trapeze is a metal or fiber carbon bar, suspended by rope or cording, from either a single or double point. In this class, aerialists learn various ways to mount and dismount, small sequences of movement, both above and below the trapeze bar.
Aerial Silks
Aerial Silks (or ‘tissu’ or ‘fabric’) is an aerial apparatus comprised of long, draping fabric, suspended from the ceiling. Aerialists learn to manipulate and climb the fabric, allowing them to combine feats of strength and fluidity. Many people think of this as dancing in the air.
