Classes and Registration
Seaside Circus
Located in Gloucester, Ma offers professional level classes, for all ages and all experience levels. Beginners are welcome, as are experienced aerialists looking to hone their craft. Classes are small, so everyone has the chance to work on their own apparatus. Instruction is always tailored to the needs and abilities of each student.
Workshops in choreography, aerial act creation, aerial hammock, dance trapeze, acting for aerialists (and aerial work for actors), as well as a variety of other specialty topics, are also offered periodically.

Silks Classes Ages 16+
We also offer both beginner and intermediate Silks classes.
Take the beginner class where you will learn the basics: foot wraps, climbing and inverting on fabric that is hung from the ceiling. We make sure that we start close to the ground. Can't do a pullup? No problem! No experience necessary.
Then , with instructor approval, move to the intermediate classes, where you will move beyond the basics into the more intermediate moves and drops.
