Community Support Melbourne

Melbourne Elevated Heights Aerial Silks Exchange

We are hosting our next Melbourne Elevated Heights Aerial Silks Exchange for anyone in the community looking to get some extra time on the silks. This is a low-pressure space meant for sharing sequences, working on specific transitions, or simply getting in a solid training session alongside others who share the same interest. We keep things informal and collaborative, so whether you are working on a new drop or just want to refine your technique, you will find a supportive group to train with. This meetup is open to all levels, though a basic level of experience is recommended as this is a skillshare environment rather than a structured class. We will have the mats and rigs ready, so please bring your own gear and come prepared to share a bit of knowledge or pick up a few tips from the rest of the group. If you are planning on joining us, please let us know by hitting the RSVP button so we have a good idea of how many people to expect.
