From the reviews
My daughter has trained at 4 different aerial studios and this is hands down the best! The physical space is perfectly designed for advanced silks (and other apparatus), the equipment is expertly rigged and cared for, and the instructors are all well-trained, super professional and masters of their crafts.
The most skilled aerial silks and hoops teachers in the state of Virginia. Hands down best instruction of any studio within the state, and we have tried quite a few. The instructors are true champions in their areas of expertise. If you are looking to learn the sport or improve upon your practice, look no further.
I honestly cannot put into words how AMAZING the instructors and students are at Host Of Sparrows. Everyone at the studio makes you feel like a part of their circus nest no matter how much or how little aerial experience you have.
On a scale of cotton candy to Brussels sprouts, Host of Sparrows is an artistically plated, healthy meal. I took a silks 1 class with Aubrey, and I appreciated her commitment to progressions, strength and conditioning, and explanation behind why we do what we do.
Your first pole class at Host of Sparrows Aerial Circus
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.
