How it works
Your Aerial class, with more choice
In STEP UP’s Aerial Mix, the class rotates between Aerial Hoop and Aerial Sling. With around 8–9 students and the same instructor, the group moves between both apparatuses during the same session.
You do not have to follow the same balance every time. You can train on both or spend more time on hoop or fabric, depending on what you enjoy and want to develop.
01
Start together
The instructor organises the class and exercises around the group’s current level.
02
Rotate across the apparatuses
The group moves between Hoop and Sling, creating training time on both within the same class.
03
Find your own balance
Continue with both apparatuses or place more emphasis on the one that suits you best.
Two different experiences
Discover both aerial apparatuses
Hoop and fabric feel and move differently. In Aerial Mix, you do not have to decide before you have tried them.
Aerial Sling · Hammock
A continuous loop of fabric for flowing sequences, supported positions and a different movement experience from the hoop.
Train on both — or focus on the one you love most
Most students want to experience both Hoop and Sling. That is why we brought them into one class instead of requiring two separate lessons.
The result: more variety, personal choice and two aerial apparatuses with one membership.

Before you start
Aerial Mix frequently asked questions
Do I need to choose Hoop or Sling from the beginning?
No. You can try both in the same class and decide over time where you want to place more emphasis.
Can I train only on hoop or only on fabric?
Yes. Although the class uses a rotating format, you can focus more on the apparatus you prefer in consultation with the instructor.
Do I need to be strong or flexible already?
No. Strength, balance and flexibility are developed gradually through the class.
What should I wear to my first class?
Comfortable, close-fitting clothing that covers your legs and underarms, without zips, buttons or jewellery that could catch on the fabric or hoop.
