This month we're stepping away from the apparatus and exploring movement from a different perspective.
As part of our ongoing Grounding the Aerialist wellbeing series, we'll be heading to Gravity Climbing Centre for a beginner-friendly bouldering induction and climbing session.
Bouldering combines strength, balance, body awareness, problem-solving and playfulness—qualities that many aerialists will recognise from their own practice. It's an opportunity to challenge ourselves in a new environment, support one another, and spend time together as a community.
Option to go for a coffee/beer and food in RASCALS next door afterwards.

My daughter tried a drop-in class yesterday and loved it. There's a cool hippy vibe but the instructors can untangle a kid's foot in the silks so effortlessly that you see the skill that goes into it. It's great exercise without it looking like exercise e.g the warm-ups are done as games. My daughter's review: "I want to go there every day after school"
