The classes they teach
“It's amazing to see a school of this size with a clear curriculum to help train aerialists in strength and progression.”
“Every instructor I have interacted with is patient, attentive, and excellent at breaking down hard moves in ways that beginners can understand.”
“I took silks first and neck up hammack classes I did share my silks with another new student and the advanced students were doing multi step moves throughout.”
“First time was silks a few years ago and last year I came back to learn lyra.”
“AerialCLT runs like a warmed-up contortionist with excellent response time when someone from out of town is trying to figure out their aerial options.”

From the reviews
Update: owner responded and offered a credit to try at a higher level. Reflected review. I will second the review I saw here stating that this a great place for true beginners but doesn’t seem like it caters much to people who have prior aerial experience and who want to experiment or flow.
I've tried out AerialCLT twice. First time was silks a few years ago and last year I came back to learn lyra. When I came the first time to learn silks I stopped going because it felt like the instructors were just showing you a move and telling you to just copy them.
Great atmosphere and very accommodating to different experience levels. I signed up for the Hammock Fundamentals just to stretch out some muscles and work on control as I normally just take spin classes. I was welcomed into the studio and was introduced to my instructor as soon almost immediately.
On a scale of cotton candy to Brussels sprouts, AerialCLT is a 5-course meal. AerialCLT runs like a warmed-up contortionist with excellent response time when someone from out of town is trying to figure out their aerial options.
Your first pole class at AerialCLT
Nervous about your first pole class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects total beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. You don't need to be strong, flexible, or thin to start — pole builds all of that, and your first class is about learning to spin, walk the pole, and hold on, not inverting on day one. What to expect: a warm-up, some conditioning, and a few basic spins or a short combo — it's a real full-body workout, so expect to sweat and to feel it in your arms and core the next day. Rest whenever you need to; no one is watching or judging. What to wear: shorts and a tank or sports bra — bare skin on your arms, legs, and stomach is what grips the pole, so save the leggings for aerial or floorwork. Skip the lotion the day of class; it makes the pole slippery. Grip aids: most studios keep grip liquid (Dry Hands / iTac) on hand, and knee pads make floorwork comfy — ask at the front desk. What to bring: water and a small towel. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and meet your instructor. It clicks fast — most people leave their first class already planning the next one.
