 This is one of the most welcoming and positive aerial gyms I've ever gone to. They will meet you wherever you are in your circus journey and help you build your technique. Everyone is so kind and encouraging. Can't wait to come back next time I'm in Chicago!! :)

Recently attended the weeklong aerial retreat with Chicago Aerial Arts and absolutely LOVED the staff and facility. Absolutely worth your $$$ if you want to train with professionals that understand a wide range of skill levels. The owner, Ashley's years of experience is evident in her ability to empower students. It's like she can read minds as well as bodies in large group lessons, personalizing the approach. Vy is a fun and practical instructor who really shares her passion for circus. The facility is a gorgeously spacious 8000sqft, totally Instagramable and well-maintained. In love with ALLLLLL the space between each aerial point. My favorite workshops were the sling, hula-hooping and duo acro workshops! Ashley and Jen were amazingly accommodating and gracious hosts for the retreat. When not training, I had a great time exploring and supporting the recommended local businesses.
