From the reviews

I love Monarch Aerial Arts! Aerial silks is a great workout that always boosts my mood while building my strength, flexibility, body awareness, and memory. I feel really lucky to have such a beautiful aerial arts studio in Brookings, and even luckier to have Joscelyne as my coach.

I’ve been practicing at Monarch Yoga consistently and it has truly been such a grounding and meaningful experience. This isn’t just a place to move your body—it’s a space where yoga is taught in its full depth. What I appreciate most is how the teachings go beyond the physical practice.

★★★★★ — Raeann, Apr 2026

I am an adult student who practices both aerial and yoga at Monarch. The instructors will guide you as you are, whether you are a beginner or looking for a challenge. Karen teaches traditional yoga (not just asanas), so her classes are holistically healing and challenging.

★★★★★ — H, Jun 2026

I am so grateful to Monarch Aerial Arts for providing a wonderful, calming space to practice yoga in! And I can’t say enough good things about the instructor, Karen Eidem. Karen is kind, encouraging and welcoming to everyone who practices yoga with her.

Your first pole class at Monarch Aerial Arts LLC

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.

Pole is for every body, and it's about strength, artistry, and confidence — not performing for anyone else. If you're pregnant or working around an injury, check with a doctor and let your instructor know so they can offer modifications.
