Classes

This dynamic conditioning class uses the hammock to deliver a unique, full-body workout for All Levels of experience. You’ll develop strength, mobility, and stamina as you challenge your body and mind. Come ready to sweat and leave feeling energized and empowered to take on the rest of your day! This is a great class for everyone looking to build strength and progress further in their aerial practice.

Once you’ve mastered the foundational aerial moves (Monkey, Iris, Wizard, Crossback Straddle, and Straddle Back) in the beginner series, you are ready for Level 2 where we focus on more complex aerial moves including a variety of stretches, challenging balances, climbs, flips, and pretty poses that continue to build strength and develop skill. Get ready to amaze yourself with the strength you gain in just a few classes!

TIP: If you’d like to progress even quicker, we recommend pairing this class along with any of the conditioning classes (Hammock Conditioning, Hoop/Lyra Conditioning, Aerial Pilates, Aerial Barre, Volée Method).

Feeling comfortable with your Level 2 aerial skills? Elevate your practice even further and build upon the complex moves learned in Level 2 with longer, multi-step sequences that require a sufficient amount of aerial-specific skill and strength. Heads up: many of these longer sequences in Level 3 require you to hold up your body weight for 3+ seconds. We see you over there ready for the challenge – you got this!

Tap into the relaxing and restorative side of Aerial Yoga. This powerful use of the hammock focuses on the mind-body connection as you flow through a series of gentle gyro-kinetic motions to open the entire spine, hips and connective tissues of the body. This healing technique uses a low hammock to incorporate levitating mediations, supported inversions, joint opening and spinal traction. This popular class will help you develop more mobility as well as a deeper internal communication with your nervous system.

Improve your overall cardio, strength, and posture in this Ballet-inspired aerial conditioning class. Because the hammock is not as stable as a bar used in a typical Barre class, your core and arms have to work harder to keep you stable! Improve your balance and build lean muscle and core power with this fun, high-energy class, ideal for all fitness levels.

If you’ve found a specific aerial pose or sequence particularly challenging, Individualized Aerial Skill may be just what you need! Think of this class as an all-requests class – after a short warmup, each participant will get to choose a pose or sequence that you’d like to work on. It can be something you find challenging and can’t figure out why or a favorite that you haven’t gotten a chance to practice in a while. Our skilled instructors will lead the class through the moves one-by-one, giving each student specific pointers to help you master the move and refine your skill. This popular class is open to anyone who is comfortable with Intermediate Level 2 classes.

Bring your kids to FGF where they’ll discover the aerial arts and learn to conquer their fears while building self-confidence. Each class builds on the previous class instruction to promote gentle stretching while incorporating lightness and play. Many parents notice improvement in their child’s focus, flexibility, and strength. You can also book a Private Aerial Kids class for an exciting and energetic alternative to the traditional birthday party (see “Private Parties” for more details).

The Volée Method fuses together suspension fitness, Pilates, Yoga and Barre to create a blend of isometric exercises and flexibility challenges. You’ll use suspension and tension in the Volée straps to push, pull and stabilize your body as you move through a head-to-toe workout featuring core-bracing squats, lunges, leg lifts, plank variations, Pliés and Développés.

Bungee Beat is a no-impact, heart-pumping, fun-flying total body workout! You’ll wear a bungee harness that adds support and/or resistance to exercises like lunges, squats and jumps. This high-intensity cardio workout is suitable for all fitness levels, just make sure you bring your shoes and come ready to sweat!

Because the class requires all participants to wear a harness and bungee cord (including the instructor), late arrivals are not allowed. Please prepare to arrive 15 minutes early for class start time.
