You don’t have to want to become a teacher to take teacher training.


Understanding why aerial skills work—and how to safely break them down—can completely change the way you train.
Cirque de Vol’s Level 1 Aerial Teacher Training, led by Sebastian Gil Jacome, is designed for aerialists who want to deepen their knowledge as well as those preparing to teach.

You’ll learn how to approach aerial skills through the lens of progression, safety, body mechanics, cueing, spotting, and effective instruction—giving you practical tools to become a more knowledgeable aerialist and a more confident instructor.

Teaching afterward is optional. Growing as an aerialist isn’t.

What You’ll Learn

How to break down aerial skills step-by-step
Progressions and modifications for different bodies and abilities
Clear, effective cueing and communication
Aerial safety and best practices
Injury prevention and spotting techniques
Class structure and lesson planning
Introductory aerial rigging concepts
Tools for building confidence as an instructor

Cirque de Vol means Circus of Flight—and we can’t think of a better description for the active art and self-expression we make space for in our studio.

From the colorful costumes and vibrant music to the theatre and storytelling we bring to life, aerial arts are so much more than something we do.  It’s an energizing, freeing, powerful and joy-filled way of life. 

Whether you are

* A shy creative craving a safe space to free your mind and immerse yourself in self-expression

* A dancer, gymnast, or performer looking to improve your skills and develop new ones.

* A child with boundless energy, an active imagination, and a determined spirit

* A busy adult seeking a bold new way to balance and strengthen their mind, body, and spirit.

* Or a little bit of all of the above...

Cirque de Vol has a place for you.🌸♥️

Contortion is excellent cross-training for aerialists because it develops the active flexibility, strength, control, and body awareness needed for many aerial skills. Building greater range of motion—while learning to control that range—can help aerialists create cleaner lines, access more advanced shapes, and move with greater confidence and fluidity in the air.

Each session balances flexibility with strength, helping you safely support your progress.

You’ll develop core and back strength to create stability, control, and long-term mobility. Designed for all levels, this class meets you where you are—no prior flexibility required.

Build strength, expand your range of motion, and explore new possibilities in a supportive environment.


Join Coach Olivia for a 60 minute weekly class. Link in bio!
Wednesdays
5:45pm Youth Class
8:15pm Adult Class


Contortion focuses on improving flexibility and mobility through structured drills and progressive training. You’ll work toward deeper splits, increased hamstring flexibility, and greater range of motion in backbends.

No experience required. Beginners are encouraged to join.
