Intro to Silks/Family Silks
This class is for students flying for the first time. We will learn basic body positions in silks and learn how to tie knots. Students will learn foundational movements that will allow them to learn sequences. We will start close to the ground and once students are confident in their movements they will learn to climb and do tricks in the air. There are no prerequisites for this course. This course meets at the same time as the Youth Intro to Silks course. Families can enjoy a joint warm up together. Those who attend without children can do an adult warm up separately.

Act Creation/Self Study
Act Creation is an opportunity for students enrolled in one other aerial course to take what they are learning in class and create their own act.

Each class will focus on a different challenge to inspire creative movements. This is the perfect complement to regular courses if you are looking to take your training to the next level. This semester Act Creation will separate into two separate groups.
Students who have previously taken Act Creation or have experience with creating their own acts are invited to join the Act Creation Ensemble group. This group will create a cohesive group piece and explore making acts together. Performing in the final show is manditory for this group.
Students who are new to Act Creation are invited to do an indepth self discovery by creating their own piece. Performing in the final show is optional for solo working students.
Students will have the opportunity to perform their acts in showcases at the end of the session.
