Dress code: Athletic wear. Absolutely no: zippers, buttons, eyelets, plastic or metal of any kind on clothing and jewelry, as any of these could snag the aerial fabric. These could tear the fabrics as well as be uncomfortable for the trapeze. Leggings at least past the knee or track pants are great. A top that is either fitted or can be tucked into the pants is ideal for going upside down. Long hair must be tied back. We will work mainly in socks and barefoot.
Bring: A water bottle.
