Our Young Flyers program offers classes in aerial hoop, aerial silks, and static trapeze, giving young people aged between 7-16 years old the chance to get some airtime. We find children this age love being upside-down and our job is to enable them to play and learn while upside-down!

Through our sessions, Young Flyers will not only learn to fly, but in the process, gain better proprioceptive and kinaesthetic awareness, build cardiovascular and muscular strength, improve flexibility, increase joint mobility and develop better balance and coordination. The class emphasis at Flying Fantastic is to have fun while learning new skills, and to experience the power of being upside down!

Watching Week & Games Week
Watching week is your chance to see what your Young & Teen Flyers have been up to this past term! You will be invited to the studio for the last 20 minutes of the class to watch a short performance, we will confirm details closer to the date and send out a reminder, but please pop this date in your diaries! Aerial games week is exactly what it sounds like, a fun reward for all the hard work they will put in this term, from obstacle courses to floor is lava, our instructors will have some fun treats in store!

What to wear:
Please can everyone wear leggings or tracksuit bottoms and a t-shirt that covers the shoulders. It's a good idea to have a long sleeved top in a bag too, just in case they need a little extra protection. Shorts aren't great for aerial as its better to protect the skin. No zips or jewellery in the class please as they damage the fabric. You don't need shoes or socks for the activity either.

What to bring:
A bottle of water is a good idea, a snack for after the session could also be a good plan.
