1
Where are you located, and how do I get into the building?
Our aerial gym is located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota near downtown off of Cliff Avenue. Our address is 1200 E 3rd Street, Sioux Falls, SD 57103. You can most easily get to us by parking in the south-facing parking lot of the Global Square building. Enter through door F and the studio will be right through the doors on the left.
2
What should I wear to my first aerial/bungee class?
We recommend wearing tight-fitting pants and a t-shirt or tank top. More tight-fitting clothing is less likely to get tangled in the fabrics. We also require all students to take off all jewelry, including rings, bracelets and dangling earrings. The ensures of fabrics do not rip and stay safe.
3
What strength/flexibility is required to get started?
There are absolutely no requirements to getting started with aerial arts. We make classes accessible to individuals of all fitness levels and ages. We work with you to build the strength and flexibility you need to succeed. We have had many students start with little-to-no fitness experience who have thrived (and have fun) doing aerial and bungee classes!
4
Is there a weight limit for any of your fitness classes?
Our aerial fabrics can hold over 2,000 pounds, and we can customize your resistance level for bungee fitness to suit any weight. For bungee fitness we recommend stopping by ahead of time if you weight 300 pounds or more to see if you can fit in the harness.
All of our apparatuses are safe for individuals or all shapes and sizes, and even can hold multiple aerialists at a time. Our rigging is attached to steel beams and is inspected regularly.
5
What class/classes do you recommend for complete beginners?
We recommend any of our beginner classes that are offered multiple times per week to individuals looking to get started. There are no pre-requisites or requirements for attending beginner level classes or strength & stretch. If you are uncertain about joining a public class right away, you can schedule a private lesson on any apparatus to try it.
6
Who all can attend your open gym sessions?
Our open gym sessions are open to individuals with prior aerial experience. If you do not have at least 2 months of aerial experience at a different facility or have taken at least one aerial class at SDAA, you are not eligible to sign up for an open gym session.

Do you offer private lessons or small group parties/sessions?
Yes - we absolutely offer private lessons/small group lessons! Contact us for availability for private lessons and small group parties, and we will get back to you with available dates and times.
