Yes! Everyone starts with tricks on the ground 🌍 while learning the wraps and techniques. From there, we’ll gently progress to a small climb, then a little higher, always at your pace. Your safety and comfort come first 🛡️.

Spinning is something you can build tolerance for. We’ll start slow, with gentle spins, and increase only when you’re ready 🌀. Please let us know if you have vertigo or inner ear conditions so we can support you.

Yes! We run Youth Beginner Aerials and other youth-friendly programs. Parents can manage children’s bookings easily by adding them to their Groovio account 👧.

Apparatuses for kids programs rotate every week, so your youth will get a taste of everything! They’ll get to try:

• Silks
• Hoop
• Hammock
• Pole & Silkies
• Gymnastics

Once a youth is 14, they may join the adult classes. 

Youth are also welcome to sign up for our Fun in the Sun (open gym time) if they have a specific skill they want to work on! An instructor will be present, but the youth should be prepared to work on what they learned in class with minimal assistance. Parents and guardians are asked to remain with their youth during Fun in the Sun.

We recommend you book a pole or aerial Fun in the Sun (open gym session) and email us to let us know. During the session, our certified instructor will help assess your skills and existing experience and recommend which class would suit you best. 📋

Don’t forget, your very first class at Sunshine Aerial Fitness is 50% off 🥳. You can purchase your pass here. 

You can also check out the prerequisites for each class! ✅

Once you join a class at our studio, you can request to join our private Students Facebook Group, and we have a post all obout how to decide what home pole is right for you.

Pole: Most beginners feel comfortable in leggings, tank tops, t-shirts, or sports bras, but you’re welcome to dress down to pole shorts and a sports bra for the occasion 😏. Bare feet or socks are fine 🧦🦶. As you progress, you’ll likely switch to shorts + sports bra for better grip. Bonus: once you join Intro, you’ll get access to our Sunshine Students private Facebook group with wardrobe tips + discount codes 👗💃.

If you are uncomfortable with too much skin showing and prefer a more modest outfit, there are pole outfitting companies that offer sticky leggings and tops to help you get the best of both worlds.

Hoop, Trapeze, Hammock, Silks: Wear fitted leggings and a snug short or long-sleeve shirt. Avoid hoodies and baggy clothing 🚫.

Fitness Classes: Anything you’d wear to a standard workout class 🏃. For handstands, a shirt you can tuck in works best.

For All Classes:

 ✔️ A water bottle 💦

 ✔️ No jewelry, rings, or watches 💍 (they can damage you and the equipment)

 ✔️ Avoid hand/body lotions that day 🧴 (they affect grip)

 ✔️ Tie up long hair to avoid tangles ✨

Safety is our top priority, and sometimes spotting (physical assistance) is the safest way to help you into or out of a move. Instructors may use touch to guide your body safely, prevent falls, or correct positioning — but your consent always comes first.

At the beginning of each class, instructors will check in with students about comfort levels with spotting. You’re welcome to say “yes, please spot me,” “no thank you,” or “ask me each time.” All options are respected.

We also encourage you to let your instructor know if your comfort level changes at any point during class. Clear communication helps us keep your training safe, supportive, and empowering.

t depends. If you’ve been training consistently for 6+ months before pregnancy and have no medical concerns, you may continue. Stephanie G. and Julia are both Pre/Postnatal Pole Specialist Certified 👩‍🏫✨. Please reach out before participating so we can ensure safety.

Yes! Every body is unique. Depending on your needs, we may request a doctor’s note 🩺, but our goal is always to adapt and make aerials accessible for you.

Our poles and silks are 14 ft high 🌆 — standard competition height is 12 ft.

 Our hoop (lyra) can be rigged to different heights.

All of our poles are 45mm X-Poles.  The front row is stainless steel and the back row is chrome. Students with metal allergies or sensitivities tend to prefer the stainless steel, but competition poles are usually chrome. We encourage students to try out the different poles and find the one(s) they like best!
