Studio Seva Circus Aerial ARts Classes
All Circus classes are ages 16 and up.
Please be on time. Late arrivals are unsafe for you and disruptive to the class.
Just like all of our Yoga classes, our Circus classes are always all-levels, but this does not mean easy. Aerial Arts of any expression is challenging, but approachable from all levels. Not sure where to begin? Start with reading each class description and special instructions to see which classes appeal to you.
All of our Circus classes are foundational and fitness based. Circus classes are focused on building strength and conscious movement patterns in your fitness program. If you are interested in learning advanced circus skills, please book a private session so we can safely train to your level. All levels are welcome to attend a weekly class, so register for your class online and jump right in!
Please be on time. If you’re not early, you’re late. If you are going to be more than 5 minutes late for class, your reservation will be canceled.

Circus Class special instructions:
Online preregistration and prepayment is required before attending.
What to Wear: Please wear long, close-fitting pants or leggings that cover the entire back of the knee. The midriff should be covered to protect the skin from the apparatus. Ensure there are no zippers or buckles on clothing and prior to class please remove watches, bracelets, rings, and any hanging earrings. Socks can be worn until they need to be removed for certain apparatus and skills.
All Levels: All classes are all-levels class, but that does not mean easy! Be prepared to work the same skill over and over until you are ready to progress to the next level. This is a multilevel curriculum program, which means there may be students practicing at many levels of our curriculum. We offer modifications to all levels, however we will monitor each participant's progression and offer individual guidance; students are expected to work independently at their appropriate level of practice.
Weight limit 350lbs on all apparatus
Circus Open Practice: (for All access members only)
Must be current student with an All Access Studio Seva Membership. Drop ins are not permitted.
This is your time to practice skills you’ve been working in class and work conditioning skills to get stronger on the apparatus. Open practice is an opportunity for you to create your own flow and find your own personal aerial style.
Online preregistration is required before attending; one apparatus per person; please arrive on time so we can rig the apparatus of your choice
Absolutely no instructing other students in Open Circus Practice. This is our rule no matter what class, and will not be tolerated in Open Circus Practice. You will be asked to leave if you violate this policy.
Celebrating a special event? Groups larger than 4 attendees must book a private party, not a class.
If you are new to Studio Seva Circus please review our Circus policies:
Reach each class description and special instructions for each class before attending.
Do not play on equipment that is not part of your class, and do not get on equipment before the beginning of class.
Be in the moment: be present and only listen to your teacher’s instructions. Be present in your practice, and remember not to help or teach other students. Please don’t interfere with your fellow student’s learning process by offering your advice or instructions. This includes giving your advice, tips, or what you consider help. This is confusing to new students and unsafe for everyone involved. You will be asked to leave the class and possibly be refused further training if you violate this policy.
Only progress to new skills as your instructor directs you in your practice. Refrain from attempting movements without learning the skill from your instructor first.
Bring a notebook and pen to write down skills and combos so you can mentally practice your new skills at home and have notes for open gym time.
If your instructor is helping another student and you need assistance, please be patient and wait for your instructor to assist you before attempting any aerial work without clear instructions.
Please be on time, or come early! We begin class with warm-ups on the apparatus, so we recommend you come a few minutes early to get a floor warm up in on your own before class. If you find that you are going to be more than a couple of minutes late, please cancel your registration and try another time.
One final note to anyone that has Circus or Aerial Arts experience but is new to Studio Seva: our rigging point for all equipment is 13 feet; we do not teach (in weekly classes or privates) multiple rolls, dives, drops, or dynamic skills that require higher rigging points. We do not teach doubles or duo skills in weekly classes or in private sessions.
For students seeking one-on-one beginning training or advanced training, private training sessions and packages are available.
Participants must be 16 or older.
