Class Progression

Course Progression Grid

Students begin by taking Beginner Aerial (Ages 13+) or Pre-teen (Ages 7-12) to learn foundational skills.

Students with previous experience from outside KC Aerial Arts can take an evaluation for placement in leveled classes (SilksLyraTrapezeRope and Sling).

Instructors in each class will provide criteria for advancement to the next one.  Instructors will conduct assessments in class for students to move up near the end of a session.
