Kids Aerial Classes
More Than Just an After School Activity
Watch your child build confidence, strength and friendships in a fun, supportive environment where every child is encouraged to progress at their own pace. Lyra (also known as aerial hoop) combines elements of dance, gymnastics and aerial arts. Children learn beautiful shapes, spins and beginner aerial skills while developing strength, coordination and confidence. Every class is taught safely and progressively by experienced instructors and is suitable for boys and girls aged 5 – 10.

Not at all! Our Kids Aerial Classes are designed for complete beginners. Every skill is taught step by step, with plenty of support and encouragement along the way.
Strength, flexibility and confidence are things we build during class. Children start at all different levels and progress at their own pace.
Lyra (also known as aerial hoop) is a circular steel hoop suspended from the ceiling. Children learn fun shapes, poses and beginner aerial skills while building strength, flexibility, coordination and confidence.
Many parents describe it as a combination of dance, gymnastics and aerial arts.
Yes. Safety is our number one priority.
Classes are taught by experienced instructors and all skills are introduced progressively based on each child's age, ability and confidence level. Crash mats are used and children are always supervised throughout the class.
Absolutely.
Many children arrive feeling nervous or unsure, especially when trying a new activity. Our instructors create a welcoming environment where every child is encouraged to participate at their own pace.
We pride ourselves on fostering a supportive and inclusive culture where children feel comfortable, accepted and celebrated.
There are definitely similarities.
Aerial classes help develop strength, flexibility, coordination, balance and body awareness, much like gymnastics. However, many families enjoy the more relaxed, supportive and non competitive atmosphere that aerial classes offer.
Comfortable activewear that allows them to move freely.
Long pants like Leggings or tights are best for Lyra with a a t-shirt, leotard or singlet work well. Jewellery should be removed before class and long hair should be tied back.
Our current Kids Aerial Classes are designed for children aged 5 to 10 years.
If your child falls just outside this age range, feel free to contact us and we can discuss the most suitable class option.
Parents are welcome to stay and watch if they wish, particularly during the first few weeks while children are settling in.
Many parents enjoy seeing their child's progress and celebrating their achievements along the way while others like to get their groceries done at Aldi across the road!
We understand that life happens! If your child is unable to attend, please contact us and we'll advise how to organise a make up class.
No. This class focuses on aerial hoop (Lyra) and age appropriate aerial fitness skills designed specifically for children.
Our kids' program is centred around movement, strength, coordination, confidence and fun in a safe and supportive environment.
No.
Our focus is on learning, movement, confidence and having fun. Children are encouraged to support one another and celebrate personal progress rather than compete against each other.

A Parent's Experience
“Yesterday my daughter started her own aerial journey at Pole Plus. She was so excited until the nerves hit. For the first 15 minutes she cried because she felt shy and overwhelmed.
The teachers were patient and encouraging. A group of girls walked over, held out their hands and said: “You can be part of our group. We can help you.” Suddenly she was smiling, hanging upside down and yelling across the room: “MUM LOOK AT ME!”
Watching her experience that acceptance and encouragement nearly made me cry. These non competitive classes are a breath of fresh air after the dance and gymnastics we’ve been involved with. No waitlists, no pressure, just FUN in a joyful environment!
Thank you Pole Plus for creating this space and for keeping it so affordable!”
