About Aerial Silks
Aerial Silks (or fabrics, chiffon, tissues.... whatever you want to call it) is a beautiful and exciting art form that is quickly gaining popularity. It's a great way to get in shape while having fun. There are no requirements for strength or flexibility to take class, just a willingness to try something new. Once you get upside down, you just can't get enough!
