For aerialists seeking an extra challenge, participating in additional performances and classes is essential. In our competition companies, aerialists work together toward a shared goal, creating a strong sense of teamwork and commitment.

Because attendance is highly encouraged—and sometimes mandatory—students benefit from consistent, focused training, which leads to faster progress and stronger skills. Being part of a close-knit team also fosters friendships and a supportive environment, both inside and outside the studio, through regular team bonding activities.

Company members have the exciting opportunity to take center stage as the leads in our end-of-season Spring Show, showcasing their hard work and growth.

During Choreography Week, aerialists dive into a deeply immersive and creative experience, collaborating closely with their coaches to select the perfect music and develop a captivating theme for their routines—specifically, one solo and one duet.

This hands-on week is dedicated to the art of storytelling through aerial dance, encouraging each aerialist to discover and express their unique artistic voice by creating original choreography.

Over four focused and dynamic days, aerialists will balance rigorous practice with fun, teamwork, and creative exploration, refining their movements and sequences to perfection.

The week culminates in a special parent preview, where families can celebrate the hard work and creativity poured into these routines.

It’s essential that aerialists come prepared to take initiative, showing independence and a strong creative mindset, as these pieces will become a core part of their performance repertoire—rehearsed weekly during company class in preparation for the competition season.
