We believe that pole & aerial arts can be accessible to everyone. Our passion is to cultivate a space where students find and finetune their strength, positivity, and confidence, in an energizing, welcoming and supportive atmosphere. Q: Describe the range of classes offered at Altitude Aerial & Fitness
A: We offer weekly brand new beginners to advanced level classes from ages 7 and up in pole fit
ness, aerial silks, aerial sling, aerial hoop and aerial rope. The studio has a large variety of over 60 weekly classes, so our adult students have a variety of days and times available to provide the flexibility needed for a busy lifestyle. For our kids and teens, an enrollment based program provides the consistency they need, matched with a progressive curriculum, ensuring we meet the needs of each student wherever they are in their aerial journey. Q: What level of experience/skill is recommended when trying either a pole fitness class or an aerial class? A: We hear all the time “I have no upper body strength, I’m too old, I need to lose weight first”. This is absolutely not true! We believe that pole & aerial arts can be accessible to everyone, so we have thoughtfully designed our unique curriculums to ensure each student (regardless of age or current fitness level) has fun and feels successful after each class. Brand new beginners are welcome! Absolutely no experience necessary. Q: What can a first-time attendee expect from their first class? A: We know that signing up for your first class with us can be overwhelming for some, and exciting for others. Our passion is to cultivate a space where students can find and finetune their strength, positivity, and confidence, in an energizing, welcoming and supportive atmosphere. Whether you choose a pole or an aerial class as your first experience with us, you can expect lots of positivity, encouragement and support from instructors, staff and even the other students! We designed our curriculum to progress our students logically and naturally, making even the most daunting of skills (for example inverting or climbing) accessible to beginner level students by breaking them down into manageable segments until the skill is understood and accomplished. Q: What are the benefits of pole fitness and aerial fitness in comparison to more conventional fitness classes? A: As far as pole fitness goes, increased strength and flexibility are great benefits. However, the biggest transformation we see is on the inside. Increased confidence, a huge boost in self esteem, and the support of a diverse and unique community that encourages and empowers each other are the greatest benefits pole dance can offer someone. On the aerial side, we would say increased coordination and core strength. The benefits of inversions (going upside down) on a regular basis have been proven to increase endorphins, improve mental clarity, and relieve joint pressure and spinal compression.
