Your first flight

Dynamic, creative and completely achievable.

Aerial hoop turns a simple steel circle into a frame for strength, expression and endless possibility.

In this beginner class, you’ll explore how to move confidently beneath, inside and around the hoop. We’ll introduce safe mounts, balanced poses and flowing transitions, breaking every skill into clear, manageable steps. As you progress, you’ll connect movements into combinations and discover the added magic of working with a spinning hoop.

The practice develops grip and upper-body strength, core control, stamina and active flexibility. You don’t need to arrive with any of those things already—our thoughtful, progressive teaching helps you build them over time, at a pace that feels right for you.

Room to learn

With four hoops and no more than two people sharing each one, you’ll have plenty of practice time and personal guidance throughout the class.
