From the reviews
I attended Open Studio today. I'm 48 and haven't been active in about 15 months. I was, at first, concerned about the space being "judgy" or "show-offy" (and I do realize that none of those are actual words - I hope you get what I'm saying). The space was completely non-competitive, totally welcoming and supportive.
Challenge Aerial is a phenomenal studio, and my child has been a part of it for nearly two years. During this time, she's had the privilege of working with some truly incredible and kind-hearted instructors, including Samara, Karen, Monet, and Renee.
Just the absolute best space in Atlanta for aerials. The space couldn't be more beautiful, every instructor is knowledgeable and kind. The community is just amazing. I make a 45 minute drive to this spot multiple times a week and it is always so worth it! This place has magic in its bones for sure.
Challenge Aerial is a beautiful new aerial studio with classes in silks, sling, trapeze and lyra as well as flexibility classes and open studio. So far I've tried their silks, sling and trapeze classes. The teachers are welcoming and supportive. And other students are supportive as well.
Bachelorette & private parties at Challenge Aerial
Challenge Aerial comes up for private parties, going by their listing and students’ reviews. A pole party is one of the most-booked ways to celebrate a bachelorette, birthday, or girls' night, and it's a blast even if nobody in the group has ever touched a pole. A few things worth asking when you reach out. First, group size and what's included — most studios run private parties for around 6–15 people with a dedicated instructor, a beginner-friendly routine, and time for photos. Second, the vibe you want — sassy heels-and-flow choreography, playful spins and tricks, or a mix; a good studio tailors it to the guest of honor. Third, booking and pricing — parties are usually a flat package booked in advance, and popular weekend slots fill up fast, so ask about deposits and what to wear (shorts for grip, no lotion). It's beginner-friendly by design, judgment-free, and genuinely fun — exactly the kind of thing everyone talks about afterward.
Your first pole class at Challenge Aerial
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.
