Why We Love Aerial Junior

Lesli Lindgren • Jan 29, 2018

It can sometimes feel like us parents are drowning in extra-curriculars; soccer, netball, chess, art club, music lessons, tutoring..why do we do this to ourselves?! Of course, watching your little ones faces light up on the way to a class makes up for it, but we’re committed to teaching them skills that last far beyond the Aerial Room.

Aerial Junior is non-competitive, and comparison is something we’re happy to leave at the door. If Gymnastics or Dance has created more burnout than bounce, see what a Silks, Hammock or Lyra class can do for your little one’s confidence.

Areas free from judgement are essential for all of us, no matter our age. To be able to learn without shame and experience challenge without competition allows young minds to feel free enough to experiment, and learn from their mistakes with grace, and a laugh. We’d rather teach children how to bring mindful moments into their everyday rather than make sure they know a whole routine. Maybe that makes us different, but we think it makes us stand out.

Children are growing up as the first generation to be ‘digital natives,’ that is, not knowing a world without computers, smartphones, and digital technologies being in the home. The constant flow of notifications, reminders and time spent online can make it feel like there’s more work, and less time, replacing headspace with hectic schedules. For parents too, the pressures we feel can transfer into our children’s lives. In the same way that we make time to clock out and enjoy a peaceful Yoga class or Barre routine to bring some energy back - it’s important to create these moments for little ones!

Each class strengthens from top to toes, with a particular focus on core and upper body strength. Ending with stretches that can be used to relieve shoulder and wrist tension from writing or using computers, as well as a short mindfulness moment, we make sure every part of the afternoon creates habits that can be translated into everyday life. Whether it’s learning to hang safely on the Lyra, and translating it to the monkey bars, or learning that when you’re feeling anxious, counting your breaths can calm you, Aerial Junior is the class that grows as your children do, and we’re so excited to start our next terms!
