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.

Class Levels
Our classes are leveled to ensure everyone can progress safely and at a similar pace.
Foundation
Start with the Foundation class to learn the basics, including foot wraps, climbing, and inverting on fabric. We begin with exercises close to the ground, so no prior experience is necessary—not even pull-ups!
Levels 1-3
With instructor approval, you can advance to Level 1 through Level 3 classes. Here, you'll move beyond the basics and learn more intermediate moves and drops.
