Youth Aerial Classes

Advanced Youth Aerial Launching Fall 2025
Admittance by invitation only.
The Advanced Youth Program is designed to prepare children for a long-lasting aerial experience beyond AerFire. We build muscle, knowledge, flexibility, and wisdom to prepare for a fulfilling career and/or life-long hobby as an aerialist!
​
Advanced Aerial is elite extreme sport. A choice to pursue advanced aerial requires dedication to your craft.
Recreational Youth Aerial
Ages 8+
The Recreational Youth Program is for aerialists who have passed through the beginner level and wish to maintain a balance of other sports along with aerial.
​
The conditioning at the recreational level is light enough to reduce the risk of overuse injury for children who also participate in other overhand sports.
​
We teach children the skills that they can do at their individual level. We have a lot of fun flowing!
​
Children can always move up to Intermediate when they are ready. They gain so much steady strength with consistency over time!
Intro to Aerial
Ages 8+
Do you want to try aerial before committing to a school year? Are you looking for a fun summer activity between busy dance/sport seasons?
​
Intro to Aerial is a fun introduction into what aerial arts can be. Learn what it takes to do the fun circus skills & gain strength and flexibility!
​
Summer 2025 has 3 Intro to Aerial class options for youth ages 8 +
Intermediate Youth Aerial
Admittance by invitation only.
The Intermediate Youth Aerial program is an intense sport! We are training to build aerial muscle while learning the theory and science behind it.
​
Intermediate level conditioning will require moderating other physical activities to allow for appropriate rest days.
​
AerFire cares about the health and safety of all children. In order to reduce the risk of overuse injury, we do not allow Intermediate Aerialists to compete in other sports that conflict with aerial training. No other overhand sports at a competitive level.
Beginner Youth Aerial
Ages 8+
The Beginner Youth Aerial program is a FUN program based in current exercise science, sound child development practices, and the skills needed to progress as an aerialist.
No previous experience needed. Children who have some previous aerial experience need to begin here.
​
Everyone progresses at their own pace. We have a curriculum unique to AerFire to ensure safe, fun, effective training.
​
Most children spend around a year in the beginner level class.
Aerial Jr
Ages 6-8
​
Introductory level aerial instruction, wrapped in fun & games. Gain safe body mechanics, muscle memory for future aerial work, and in an age-appropriate atmosphere.

Registration Instructions
Current Students: Please consult with Paula for placement.
​
New Students: Please begin in Youth Introduction to Aerial Arts. All youth begin here, even when they have previous aerial experience in other places. AerFire has a unique curriculum, and we want to ensure that your child is fully prepared for success. All students work at their own pace, so an experienced aerialist might zip through the intro level quickly, or they might need extra time at the intro level if we spot unsafe muscle memory habits we need to correct.
​
At AerFire, we individualize the work in an organized curriculum. We do the hard work and have a lot of fun! We are aiming aerialists for success in a highly competitive global aerial arts community while nurturing children as creative, fun-loving, explorative and thoughtful people.
