Join Momentum Aerial on Saturday, July 12th at 10am for our limited time Sling Flow Basic class!

Have you ever tried sling before? If not, this is a great opportunity to try! Taught by the amazing Sunn Mixon, you'll get a taste of what it feels like to be supported in a hammock and learn new wraps, among a fun and supportive community. For aerial students with prior experiences in silk, lyra, and trapeze, sling will feel similar.

Don't forget to register before all the spots are filled -- remember this is one day only! Sign up through Mindbody.

We can't wait to see you there!

Saturday June 29th 12-2pm in studio a with lyra instructor Kaya and pole apprentice Savannah. Come hang out with our amazing aerial community of any and all ages!

Drop it Like It’s Hot for Intermediate/ Advanced Aerialists at 12:15 pm:

In this workshop students will learn the techniques for executing smooth, eye catching drops and dynamic tricks. Want consecutive elbow circles but don't have them yet?

Join us for a comprehensive workshop to understand the effects of hypermobility in the aerial community. During this session, we'll delve into the intricacies of hypermobility, including its definition, diagnostic criteria, and the various types recognized within medical literature. We'll also explore common comorbidities associated with hypermobility and provide insights into recognizing their impacts, empowering participants to modify their routines based on daily physical feedback.

We'll address considerations specific to the hypermobile population when engaging in both aerobic and strength training exercises, ensuring a holistic approach to aerial fitness as well as general well-being. By the workshop's conclusion, attendees will be equipped to identify signs of hypermobility, comprehend its systemic effects on the body, and adapt their movement programs accordingly.

Presented by Stephanie Weiner, Dr. of Physical Therapy and Momentum Aerial Student -

Stephanie is a graduate of Northern Arizona University with a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT), and a certified Pilates instructor and strength coach. She has been coaching for over nine-years; during which she has worked with paralympians, rowers, chronic pain patients, and diverse patients/clients in between. She specializes in helping people who have been discounted or failed by the medical and/or fitness industry because of the systemic gaps in our healthcare system.

Who Should Attend:

Aerial Students who suspect they have hypermobility, parents of students with hypermobility, people who have been diagnosed with hypermobility by a healthcare professional, or students who have been told by an aerial teacher that they may have hypermobility. This workshop is also great for aerial students who struggle to invert.
