This class is intended for intermediate and advanced students who have an aerial practice. Students will refine their aerial silks/fabric and lyra skills while working on choreography, transitions and new movements. Proper technique, terminology and injury prevention will be emphasized while maneuvering gracefully through the air higher off of the ground. Students will progress to more challenging moves and sequencing. In silks, students get familiar and comfortable with sequencing from catchers wrap, hipkey, footlocks, and double crochet in the air. Explore your multi-directional movement possibilities!

  • Prerequisite: Student must have taken aerial intro series and intermediate series or be approved by instructor. If you are not sure if Aerial Skills Level 3 is for you, please email Annie admin@dancecrestedbutte.org for approval
  • Tight fitting tops and bottoms that cover the backs of the knees and underarms, such as leggings and t-shirts or long sleeved shirts. It is very important that the clothes do not have zippers or buttons on them to protect the equipment and everyone's safety.
