Frequently Asked Questions

Your kid's safety and happiness is most important to us in our aerial classes. Here are answers to frequently asked questions about our kids and teen aerial classes in Sioux Falls.

01

Will my kid get their own apparatus during class?

Yes! We keep our classes small, so each student has their own apparatus. This helps kids stay focused and safe during class. More time on the aerial apparatus also helps them progress most quickly. See full class schedule.

03

Will there be opportunities for my kid to perform?

Absolutely! We host two student showcases per year in spring and fall. Additionally, we host a once annual aerial competition where they can compete locally. If they want to compete in other virtual and in-person competitions, our coaches will help they prepare their routines and find aerial opportunities. 

02

How do you ensure my kid is safe?

All of our aerial rig points were created specifically to be safe are sturdy. We have worked with certified riggers to evaluate the space, and frequently inspect and upgrade equipment. We have crash mats under each apparatus and foam flooring to keep you child safe.

04

What should my kid wear to class?

We recommend wearing a full length shirt and leggings that go past the need with no zippers. This will prevent chaffing and maximize comfort. No jewelry other then stud earrings are permitted on on the fabrics. 

Why Try Aerial Silks Classes?

Elizabeth W.

I’ve been to a handful of classes with them now. Always had an amazing experience. All the instructors are so wonderful, helpful and kind. I wasn’t sure what to expect because I had 0 experience in this and I was nervous to try but those fears were quickly put away within minutes of my first class. I would recommend them to anyone :).
