Community Programs

Community Programs

We’re not only pioneering this incredible art form, we’re serving the community with our outreach programs. In addition to free or low-cost discussion-demonstrations for school kids, we have two classes specifically geared to youth in our community.

Kids Who Fly

Kids Who Fly builds healthy risk-taking behaviors, works constructively on self-esteem issues, and helps youth experience the unique joy of artistic expression through attending aerial classes designed specifically for youth-at-risk. Students benefit from increased strength and confidence; better body image; broader and more appropriate concepts of physical beauty; reduced stress and improved coping through creative expression; improvement in brain function for kids with certain learning disabilities; and the flat-out delight and freedom of flying. Since the program’s inception, we have served over 8,300 youth in our community.


“It truly was one of the most inspiring activities that we have ever done as an agency. The smiles on the faces of our often depressed, angry, and struggling children alone was an incredible gift.”

—Counselor, Alternative Homes for Youth

“I felt free for a moment and I forgot about all my problems and thought about taking advantage of opportunities that life gives me and value them.”

—Kids Who Fly student
