To protect the safety and health of our community, we will not be holding live auditions for this year’s program.

We have had a successful 2020-2021 program so far under COVID-19 protocols. Although we do not know what the future holds, we are prepared to keep our students safe while delivering high quality training!

* Jump start your career *

* Become a versatile aerial dance artist *

* Expand your creative potential *



Our Program
Our program is a transformative 9 month journey for aerial dancers aspiring to a professional career in this unique and creative field. We provide the well-rounded training and skills students need to not only pursue a variety of career paths, but also to be highly marketable in this ever growing and competitive arena. Our graduates are able to perform on a myriad of aerial apparatus, choreograph compelling work, and contribute to the next generation of aerial dance innovation!

Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is not only passionate about the discipline of aerial dance, but also is open to a wide variety of movement approaches and desires to be artistically and technically challenged. Successful candidates already possess a solid foundation in a dance or movement discipline and have studied more than one aerial apparatus.

Candidates that come motivated to put their full energy into this program and to establish their career direction tend to achieve the most success. We do not recommend this program to candidates that desire to specialize in one specific apparatus, as our curriculum is designed to create versatile performers that possess a high level of skill on many apparatus.

Curriculum 
Our well-rounded curriculum prepares aerial dance artists for a wide variety of aerial career trajectories, expands their creative potential, and provides them with the tools to keep their bodies healthy and flying!

  • Aerial Dance Technique: Fabric, Lyra, Low Flying Trapeze, Rope, Sling, Static Trapeze, and more!
  • Aerial Dance Creation: Performance, Choreography, Improvisation, Invention
  • Career Preparation: Portfolio Building, Marketing, Rigging, Budgeting, Career Pathways, and more!
  • Health & Wellness: Kinesiology, Individual Body Assessments, Conditioning, Flexibility, Somatic Practices, Injury Prevention, and more!
  • Independent Study: Open Gym with dedicated space and equipment for each student to work towards their individual goals

Why train with Frequent Flyers?
