aerial circus classes for kids & Teens
Is your child ready to try something new and experience the fun of aerial arts?
At TCA Kids we specialise in teaching youth aerial hoop and aerial hammock.
Kids will learn a mixture of aerial hoop and hammock during their first year. This helps to give them a taste into the wide variety of aerial skills and set them up for a safe and successful aerial journey. Once they have mastered the foundations of aerials in their Intro classes, kids will move into Level 1 Hoop and/or Level 1 Hammock. At this point they may choose to specialise in just one apparatus or continue their training across both disciplines. |
intro to circus
Intro to Circus is designed for kids who have never tried aerials before. If this the student's first time in an aerial hoop or aerial hammock class then this best place for them to start! Students don't need to have experience in dance or gymnastics to begin.
During your child's first year in Intro to Circus, they will learn a combination of aerial hoop and aerial hammock skills. In their first few sessions, they will make some friends, learn the basics of how to hold the hoop/hammock, sit inside, and balance on it. As they progress and become more comfortable with the apparatuses, they will start to learn new poses in and around the hoop/hammock and how to link these together in a variety of ways.
These classes will teach them the building blocks for a safe and successful aerial journey.

Next steps
After your child has mastered the foundations of aerial arts in our Intro to Circus classes, they will progressively work through Level 1 - 6 aerial hoop and aerial hammock specific classes. You will be notified when your child is ready to move from one level to another - usually this is annually.
In these classes we build on what we have already learnt and introduce more challenging moves as well as learning to link together higher level combos. Students will also start to work through more challenging conditioning exercises to prepare them for more advanced aerial art tricks and sequences.
In Levels 1 and above, children will move away from training combined aerials, and will instead enrol into individual classes for hoop and hammock.
