About Us
Our Aerial Youth Classes are a fun and engaging way for young people to build confidence, improve coordination and explore movement in a supportive environment. Classes take place on Wednesday Evenings at 19 Chapel Street,Derby, offering a welcoming space for participants to learn and grow. These classes have been successfully run by an experienced teachers Farrell and Caitlin when the building was formerly known as DEDA.Having seen how participants have developed both physically and emotionally and how much the families value this space, we are excited to continue the classes together. Please join us on this new venture as we are committed to providing accessible, inclusive teaching that supports every young person in the air.
Each week young people rotate between Aerial silks/Rope, Aerial hoop and Static trapeze.
