Welcome to training at Aerial Fit®! For new students who are excited to discover a new passion, we can’t wait to meet you!
Aerial Fit® General Policies
Welcome to Aerial Fit®! We believe anyone can benefit from circus arts, and the first things you will need to do are very easy.
Before your session starts
- Prepare by checking out our online New Student Welcome and Orientation.
- Digitally sign all liability waivers and agreements prior to entering Aerial Fit. Participants under the age of 18 will require a parent or legal guardian’s signature on their waiver and registration forms.
- Show up in comfortable form-fitting clothing that covers the armpits and knees. Leggings and form-fitting tops work well. For some aerial classes, unitards and/or leotards can provide additional protection around the waist area. Be aware that you might be going upside down and please dress accordingly. Long hair should be tied back. Please wear deodorant in consideration of others around you.
- To participate fully at Aerial Fit, you must remove all jewelry (especially rings and bracelets). Do not wear perfume as it can linger on the fabric. Do not wear moisturizer as it can make you slippery and damage the apparatus.
- Nobody under the influence of any mood-altering substances including drugs or alcohol may participate in any class or activity at Aerial Fit.
During your session
- Students only on the training floor.
- No shoes allowed on the floor.
- No food, gum, or liquid allowed on the floor.
- Stay off the equipment until given permission by the instructor on duty.

Observers
We are not allowing observers inside the facility at this time. Students only inside the space.
Photo & Video
We all love to share our aerial and acrobatics adventures with photos and videos. Photos and videos can be distracting when learning, so please read our Photo/Video policies.
- Photos and video may be taken only with permission of the instructor.
- Please do not post video of the instructors.
Equipment & Apparatus Safety
We strongly adhere to a safety first philosophy. While aerial and acrobatics is really fun, we need to make sure it stays that way by following our Equipment/Safety policies.
- Recognize that aerial arts has inherent risks that could result in physical or emotional injury, paralysis, death, or damage to self, to property, or to third parties. Such risks cannot be completely eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity, however, we can mitigate the risks by following safe practice.
- Do not touch rigging or pulley system without direct permission from the instructor on duty.
- Always practice over a thick mat if you are leaving the ground.
- Make sure that mats are centered underneath the apparatus.
- Do not step on a mat that you are not using. Never walk underneath anyone who is in the air.
- Treat our safety equipment with respect. Carry the mats, do not drag them.
