6-Week Series

Our 6-Week Series classes are designed to teach a comprehensive curriculum of a single aerial apparatus. The price of any Series class is always $100, you will receive discounts if you combine them with an unlimited pass.  Beginners start with Level 1 where we teach basic skills and tricks, as well as conditioning exercises to help build strength, stamina and flexibility.  Students may join Level 2 and 3 by teacher invitation. Some Level 3 Classes are taught as private classes, for example Lyra 3. Not sure where you belong?  Just ask!  We’ll gladly help you figure out the best class for your skill level.

The first class of each 6-week series is available for drop-ins, so if you want to test the waters before diving in, you’ll have the chance to.  Starting in the second week of each series class, we no longer allow new students to join.  But, never fear!  We’ve got other weekly drop-in classes available for students at all skills levels.

Juggling is one of the more popular circus arts, you will learn to balance objects, manipulate them with different parts of your body and train your hands and brain to multi-task.

Hammock 1

Beginner Hammock uses a version of the traditional “Silks” apparatus that is looped to create a go-to resting point that allows for ample lyrical movement. We will focus on basic strength-building, flexibility, and simple poses that will help create a personal style of aerial dance for each student!  There will be a concentration on injury prevention and flexibility as well as act development exercises that will be geared towards a student showcase at the end of the series.

Hammock 2

Advanced Hammock challenges you to new heights. You will learn new poses, drops and wraps as well as increased focus on injury prevention and performance form.

Lyra 1

Learn the seamless charm of the “hoop.” Students will begin to tackle inversions, mounts, dismounts and build their tolerance for spinning as well as general strength. This class emphasizes conditioning, strength and flexibility that will be geared towards a student showcase at the end of the series.

Lyra 2

Increase your knowledge of the “hoop” and you will tackle more advanced and exciting combinations, moves and spins. You will increase your strength and flexibility by repetition. Different types of lyras are used in this class (single point, double point, other variations) and we are tackling doubles. Did we mention choreography?  There will be a student showcase at the end of the series.  Invitation by instructor.

Pole 1

In partnership with Brass Ovaries, Sky Candy presents you… Pole with Brynn Route! We are offering both beginner and intermediate level pole classes.

In the pole one series we will focus on the fundamental aspects of pole, including the grips, spins, and techniques for stretching and conditioning which make up the foundations of pole dancing.  Students will learn choreographed routines comprised of basic elements, which we will perfect over the course of the session. There will be a concentration on injury prevention and flexibility as well as act development exercises that will be geared towards a student showcase at the end of the series.

Pole dancing requires exposed skin to stick to the pole. Shorts, tank tops and sports bra work best. Acceptable footwear includes ballet shoes, athletic shoes or bare feet. Do not wear or apply lotions or oils before attending a pole class, as it will impede pole gripping and floor work abilities. Please remove all jewelry (rings, bracelets and watches) before class as it could pinch you and damage the pole.

Pole 2

In Pole 2, students will continue learning pole transitions and body strengthening moves by applying the skills they learned in Pole 1. In this class the choreography becomes longer and more involved and the strength training is ramped up to meet your stronger bodies. Each class will include instruction on how to polish your transitions and pole combinations. In the pole two series we will utilize the techniques learned in pole one and expand our skill set with additional tricks and combinations.  Students will learn how to incorporate their repertoire into an intermediate routine, which they are invited to showcase at the end of the 6-week session. Invitation by instructor.

Silks 1

Learn this popular and graceful art form popularized by many “Vegas” style shows. Build your core and upper body strength as you learn to climb, invert, and create your apparatus. There will be a concentration on injury prevention and flexibility as well as act development exercises that will be geared towards a student showcase at the end of the series.

Silks 2

Building on the basics of silks, students gain stamina and strength via more complicated sequences, climbs, balances & drops.  Students begin their own personal research into the art form by means of improvisation and choreography.

Silks 3 and Trapeze 3

Both of these classes will add the icing on the cake of Silks and Trapeze, everything you have learned so far will be peanuts to what you will learn in both of these classes. Very advanced curriculum dictates that these classes are by invitation of your teacher only.
