Aerial Hoop (Lyra) near you

Aerial hoop — the lyra — is a suspended steel ring you sit in, spin on, pose across and flow around, both in the air and from the ground. It is a little more forgiving on the hands than silks, since the hoop itself often supports you, and it makes beautiful shapes, which is part of why it is such a popular partner to pole. It suits people drawn to sculptural, shape-making movement and controlled spins, and anyone who wants an aerial art with a slightly gentler entry point. Expect some pressure-point tenderness where the hoop meets your body at first, expect to build core and grip over time, and expect the same careful, progressive teaching pole studios are known for. The 263 studios below teach aerial hoop (lyra) classes — use the map to find the closest one, or browse by state.

Style labels come from each studio's own website and students' reviews; class schedules and formats change, so check the studio's timetable before you go.
