This class is suitable for both brand-new students and existing students working to further develop coordination and control. Class time will be used to explore multiple apparatuses, allowing students to broaden their circus horizons in apparatuses such as sling, rope, lyra, and trapeze. Learn something new every week, while also reviewing and expanding upon fundamentals. This class is accessible to everyone of all bodies and abilities. We will rotate apparatuses every 3 weeks, so please note the title of the class, as it will reflect which apparatus we work on!

This class is suitable for all students! Whether you are moving towards advanced skills or just starting out on your aerial journey, this class is for you! Each week there will be lesson plans for lyra and trapeze, as well as one vertical apparatus for practicing climbs. Intermediate/advanced students will have the chance to hone their dynamic skills, musicality, technique, creativity, and learn new tricks, sequences, transitions, and shapes. Beginner students will learn the basics of each apparatus to form a strong foundation for future classes. There is something for everyone here! Please reach out to us if you have questions; we would love to chat!

This class is suitable for both brand-new and experienced students. Learn rope climbs, foot locks, inversions, and static (non-spinning) rope skills. Intermediate students will work on sequencing skills. Rope is a suitable stand-alone class, or is a fabulous compliment to silks training. This class is accessible to everyone of all bodies and abilities.

In this class we will practice fundamentals of sling vocabulary and body awareness, holding ones bodyweight, basic mounts and inversions (tilting the body upside down), and a range of skills for moving in and on the fabric. Expect to learn short sequences that can be performed at a very low height, as well as body-strengthening exercises to develop a safe and strong aerial practice! Vianna's classes will also include elements of aerial dance and theatrical performance to give students tools for future choreography and performance endeavors!

This class is suitable for all skill levels - whether your first time in a circus class, or a student with 1000 lessons under their belt, you are welcome here! Trapeze was the first apparatus coach Sam learned, and she believes understanding trapeze enhances performance on all other aerial equipment. Class material will be custom-suited every week to the students registered, and may include conditioning, individual skill-building (below the bar, seated, standing, and in the ropes), spinning or swinging on dance trapeze, synchronized or weight-sharing skills on triple trapeze.

In this class, we will practice fundamentals of silks and sling vocabulary and body awareness, holding ones bodyweight, basic climbs, foot locks, and simple inversions (tilting the body upside down).

For our more advanced students, we'll be exploring more challenging climbs, inversions, and pathways, as well as progressing drops and other dynamic skills. This class is accessible to everyone of all bodies and abilities.

This beginning lyra class is open to students trying aerial arts for the first time as well as students with some experience! We will warm up together, practice getting onto the lyra, and learn and practice different tricks, skills, and shapes. If there are intermediate or advanced students that want to join the class they'll practice foundational skills with the class before working on other skills. Each class will end with a cool down. This class is accessible to everyone of all bodies and abilities.

In this class, we will practice fundamentals of silks vocabulary and body awareness, holding ones bodyweight, basic climbs, foot locks, simple inversions (tilting the body upside down), and building up to beginner drops (not required).

This class is an excellent choice for students looking to further develop their strength and mobility. If you want to improve your body awareness and gain precise control over your movements this class is for you. Class material will change weekly but will always include aerial exercises, deep stretching, and ground-based workouts.

This class is suitable for aerialists with experience on silks who are looking to improve upon coordination and control. This class is a great clinic for students who are feeling stuck on particular silks techniques such as inversions and hip keys. Sequences will be built from a combination of new skills and things learned in beginner silks.

In this class children and teens ages 7-16 will be introduced to aerial silks as well as a variety of other apparatuses including but not limited to: lyra, trapeze, and rope.

The focus of this class is to strengthen foundational skills, learned prior in beginner silks classes, by linking them together to build endurance, explore inversion-based moves, and improve technique through moderate conditioning. We will work towards taking skills higher in the air to build confidence and courage. Climbing drills, inversion preparation, and circus terminology/mild fabric theory will be heavily implemented in this class!

Open gym is a time for students to practice moves they have learned in class. It's also a great way to meet the other Night Owls and make new friends! Teaching or skill sharing during open gym is not allowed. Trying moves that you found online or that you haven not yet learned from an instructor is not allowed. You must have taken at least 10 classes in the specific apparatus you'd like to use.

If you are a current NOCA student, please check in with Caroline to get approval for this class! A lyra class for intermediate and advanced students who love technical puzzles, creative movement, and exploring new pathways. We will build on foundational material from beginner classes, work on fundamental dynamic skills, and learn how to play and create. Each class will begin with a group warm up and conditioning on the lyra. We will then move on to skill building, sequence creation, and exploring technically challenging but creatively exciting new skills and planes of the hoop. Some classes will be serious, some playful, often both. Some classes will be skill-focused, some will be collaborative, and some will be very exploratory. Caroline will offer a wealth of prompts and resources to help you develop your own style of movement on lyra, challenge how you think about this apparatus, and discover new ways to connect with your hoop. Prereqs: double knee hang, ability to hold yourself up with bent and straight arms, multiple entries for mounting the hoop, willingness to push yourself creatively.
