Prerequisites
This workshop is not suitable for complete beginners.
You should be comfortable with basic aerial technique (hoop, trapeze, or sling/aerial yoga/silks) and have good grip strength and body awareness.
Some previous conditioning and inversion experience will help you get the most from this class.
π©° What to Wear
Skin coverage is key. Wear long leggings, a long-sleeved top, or layers to protect your skin from the chains. Avoid loose clothing that could catch, and remove all rings, watches, and jewellery before class. Bring knee pads or elbow sleeves if you want extra protection.
π What to Bring
Bring a water bottle, grip aid, and a small towel. Most importantly, bring your attitude: this class is all about channelling strength and sensuality with a fierce Kitten edge.
π What to Expect in Class
Aerial metal: working with the texture, weight, and unpredictable nature of the chains to create striking shapes and dynamic movement.
Rigging is included in the class time and can take up to 15 minutes, so we aim to start the class by 8:40pm/8:45pm.
Expect to explore:
Fundamental wraps, balances, and slides on the chains
Creative sequencing that blends power with fluidity
Controlled releases, tumbles, dives and momentum-driven transitions
A mini combo or flow sequence that captures the raw, rebellious spirit of the apparatus
The movement will feel strong, grounded, and visceral: part dance, part rebellion!
Youβll learn to work with the chains, letting them guide your momentum while you discover new ways to move, hang, and drop.
π Why Take This Workshop?
Perfect for aerialists who want to:
Step outside their comfort zone and try a unique, edgy apparatus
Build strength and confidence through raw, grounded movement
Explore creative sequencing with a touch of attitude and rebellion
Youβll leave class feeling fierce, strong, and unstoppable.
