AERIAL CLASSES
This class offers you a rare opportunity to undertake highly specialised training in the art of Wall Acrobatics. There is nothing quite like the feeling of running on walls and the exhilaration of stepping off the eight metre platform and onto the wall for the very first time! Once you have found your feet, you will re-learn how to walk, run and jump vertically. As you gain confidence you will learn to perform stunning acrobatic manoeuvres while suspended high above the watchers below.

No experience necessary but it is recommended that students have a reasonable level of fitness and the ability to set aside any concerns about height.
