If you think you can't get into aerial arts because you're not flexible, you're not terribly…read morestrong, you have no dance or gymnastics training, or (my favorite) you're too old...read on. I am 50 years old, overweight, and about as flexible as a broomstick. I have had ZERO dance or gymnastics training in my life. I've never done the splits or even a pullup. My upper body strength is lacking. And sometimes I lack confidence in myself. In just a mere 3 months of Lyra classes, Aerial Dragonfly had me performing a wide variety of moves, poses, and flows in the Lyra, and they helped me develop so much conviction in my abilities, my body type, and my age. I became stronger and much more confident, and with the encouragement of my instructors and new friends, I participated in their spring Student Showcase. I was literally performing in front of a large, supportive crowd after THREE MONTHS of learning and practicing at the Aerial Dragonfly. It was amazing! I've *never* been in a community that was so instantly supportive, fun, encouraging, and gentle. I've spent time with 4-5 instructors and learned something new every time. I've made so many friends and I look forward to seeing them every week. We really support each other and enjoy each other...from all walks of life. You have nothing to lose. You can sign up for one class at a time. You'll be amazed at what you can accomplish, and the incredible community you can become part of. Your age, your experience, your body type-none of these things will hold you back if you just give them a try. You CAN fly!

I love this studio! Such a welcoming place to go and move my body in a different way. I love…read morelearning new things and I've been wanting to try aerial work. I'm proud to support a woman owned business and a Veteran owned business. I've taken two lessons so far: Lyra (aerial hoop) and trapeze. Both of my lessons have been with Dari. She is one of the owners and she's amazing! Such a patient and kind teacher. I felt instantly welcomed in the space. Such a spacious and beautiful studio! There is a parking lot too. This studio offers a variety of modalities, including aerial hammock, aerial yoga, pole dancing, Lyra, trapeze, aerial silks and more. I plan on trying everything! Plenty of mats and things to stay safe. It's easy to book classes online through their website, and they offer packages too. These are private lessons, and the prices are very reasonable. It's amazing how much I get to try and learn in one hour! Such a gift to receive one on one training like this. Wow! Fantastic workout and so much fun. I'm really grateful I found this studio. I highly recommend coming here.

Hands down the best Pole Fitness Studio I've ever been to. I got it and met when I first called and…read moreshe mentioned they were in the middle of twerking classes my white but was a little intimidated. You know that old phrase you put your hand up on my hip when I dip you dip we dip. Well guess what that's exactly how a twerking is taught never in a million years did I think I would know how to twerk but guess who knows now!!!!! And that wasn't even the class I signed up for. Now let me explain something to you Pole Fitness AKA aerial ballet has nothing to do with stripping it involves hard core strength training and upper body strength along with a substantial amount of course drink after all you are lifting your entire body weight up over your head and being graceful about it like to see anyone of you guys tried to do that. I also want to mention this is a competitive sport that involves working out everyday to keep your body in shape to support yourself. And to top it off to add a bit of femininity to it you're walking around and eating Shield. So anybody who has anything bad to say about this needs to check themselves go sit in the corner and contemplate life. This is an art form no different than ballet or yoga. Now that I got that out of my system let me tell you the instructor here is very intermediate and very good at teaching moves when it comes to hand placement and following through I would highly recommend this place to anybody looking for a new style of workout or fitness program

We were allowed to bring in food, drinks, and decorations, so that was very convenient! And the instructor really taught at a pace that everyone was able to feel comfortable with, and try! The instructor was a very nice young lady, and professional. I believe her name is Jai and she is the owner. I would recommend for women to check out some of the classes, as I know there was a pole class added and cardio classes!
