Aerial Foundations
***This is a required class before moving up to any of our regular aerial courses***
Aerial Foundations is an integral class in introducing students to all the different aerial apparatuses that Kairos has at the studio: fabric, hammock, hoop, and trapeze. This class focuses on building the unique strength and conditioning required for succeeding in your aerial journey!
Instructors will spend time strengthening grip, hip flexors, abdominals, and upper body. This class will also spend time conditioning the pressure points a student will encounter when working with an apparatus in their arm pits, elbows, hip flexors, and knees. Laying a foundation is an important step in any students progress and this class will help poise everyone for a successful future here at Kairos!
