My Aerial Home’s spring circus workshop festival has undergone a revamp and is including two Nights at Home, evenings to add entertainment to our circus skills festival.

On April 29th & 30th My Aerial Home is open for our Spring Awakening Aerial Weekend which offers hobby circus practitioners the chance to try new circus skills and hone their established practice whilst working with guest trainers.

The weekend is also open to fitness enthusiasts who want to flex their muscles in this unusual art form and who love a challenge.

Practitioners pay a day price for one or two days and pick from a selection of classes including German wheel, tippy hoop, triples trapeze, suspended/swinging Chinese pole as well as the more established skills of silks, trapeze, rope, straps and handstands. We are also offering nutrition, body checks for movement improvement, performance support and artistic line for aerialists, Pilates and yoga!

NIGHTS AT HOME - Saturday night we have Christopher Green (Tina C, Ida Barr) a multi award winning comedian who is also a co curator at the British Library who will be rummaging through the Library archive to bring us enriching info about circus.

Sunday night we have our first Aerial Dance Battle!!! And we are looking for Air “crews” (aerialists who want to perform in the battle) and audience (who want to vote).

A live DJ will bring the musical inspiration to our first, friendly, aerial dance off!

We would like to find some experienced aerialists to be air crew to take part in this battle – do you want to be involved?

Our in house bar (MAH’s Bar) hosted by the ever grumpy Chef Erkin will be open for drinks and nibbles. Make that Sunday night a fun one! Join us.

Fees: 1 day £114. 2 days £228 To book contact: aerialhome@live.co.uk.
