Join us for a wonderful morning of Circus and Aerial Activities. If your kids are climbing the walls, let them come climb Aerial Silks with us instead. Our workshops are all about having fun, and trying new things.

Small groups for maximum aerial fun!

We keep our class sizes small and that means lots of time up in the air with personalised attention!  Our ratios are 6-8 students per teacher. All our teachers have their Blue Card Working with Children checks. We find this is very nurturing for young people who can otherwise be overwhelmed in large group activities.

Suitable for all levels - particularly beginners!

No previous experience is necessary, this workshop is appropriate for beginners. If your child already has some Aerial experience we will do our best to cater to their needs, our focus of these workshops is having fun, playing games, and enjoying movement.

Accessibility

Our workshops are held both on the ground floor and in our upstairs room. If your child has accessibility requirements, please let us know so that we can make adjustments to accomodate them. You can see more details about access to HAPY Studio here

What to bring

BYO Food for snacks and lunch! Our participants use up a lot of energy, and we refuel regularly throughout the workshop to keep energy levels high.

What to Wear

We recommend wearing long leggings or pants that cover the knees to ensure your child is comfortable and has a layer of protection when on the apparatus.
