Money well spent! My daughter had her first private lesson today. Awesome experience. Highly recommend. Will be back! Thank you to the knowledgeable staff member who taught her some tips today. Very kind! Great location and atmosphere.

This studio has my heart. It's an encouraging, supportive, and safe space that creates a true family. I have always really appreciated the diversity here. There are students from all walks, sizes, shapes, colors, and personalities. It doesn't matter if you have never done aerial arts or anything related a day in your life. It doesn't even matter if you're strong, flexible, or fit already. You will feel welcome and capable when you walk in those doors -- guaranteed, and be accompanied by plenty of other beginners, intermediate, and advanced students. There are plenty of students who attend as a fun hobby, professionally, and just to go on a journey for creativity, expression, self-love, confidence building, and more (because every aerialist's journey and mission is personal!) I'm biased, but the staff is amazing! Professional but personable, helpful, and always on top of things and there to support you however you may need. They will be your ultimate cheerleaders. The instructors are skilled, advanced, and know their stuff. They have a real passion for what they do and inspire others. If you're looking for somewhere to get fit while having fun and diving into something new and expressive, this is the place for you. Once you get started, you'll quickly discover how addicting aerial arts are and fall in love with the community.

Aerial Dragons Studios is my happy place. The instructors are encouraging, uplifting and talented. They give the best aerial training and focus on technique, flair and above all safety. The atmosphere is so welcoming and you’ll leave feeling glad you were there.

We just had 2 performers here at Sandpearl Resort from Aerial Dragons and they were nothing short of AMAZING!! They were beyond amazing! Also, I have dealt with a ton of entertainers in my career, these two were so very nice, friendly and professional! Many times these folks can be standoff divas but not these two, well done in picking such fantastic representations of your company! They were an absolute pleasure to work with! They practiced their routine before doors opened and genuinely cared about the experience they gave our guests. I am so happy to have found you and your team and I look forward to having you with us again here at the Resort!!

Good: * ADS invested in actual crash mats, and they're usually used. * Lots of height to work with, I haven't seen sketchy rigging here. * Expansive offerings that can be challenging to find elsewhere. * Excellent flexibility classes - flexibility training here saved me $700/month on physical therapy. * Shares a building with Cigar City CrossFit, which is absolutely phenomenal. Bad: * Safety isn't taken as seriously here as it should be - one person has been hospitalized so far this year after hitting the floor without a crash mat. Some instructors present content with little understanding of risks inherent. Some instructors teach content involving internal rotation overhead with a significant load, resulting in rotator cuff damage. This is a cultural issue - don't be fooled by flooring that wasn't there six months ago or safety theater. * Outside of introductory content, coherent programming is scarce - everything else is arbitrary and at any given instructor's discretion. Teaching competency is often limited to specific aerial content. Many instructors explicitly prioritize the short and slim at the expense of everybody else. * There are massive curriculum holes here, including ignorance of fundamentals of strength training and fundamental aerial technique. Multiple instructors teach ineffective inversion technique - collapsing the legs past 90 degrees results in a disengaged TVA - and almost nobody here has any idea how to program effective conditioning for inverts. Push-pull technique in sling and crossback straddle isn't taught here. Appropriate abdominal engagement and positioning isn't taught in inverted positions. There are countless examples of this - those applauding them don't know any better. * Inadequate airflow during warmer months. Recommend bringing your own portable fan, water, electrolyte drinks, and taking frequent breaks. * Some instructors are unprofessional - power tripping, playing favorites, showing up late, inappropriate personal questions, etc. Ugly: * Cliquey, passive-aggressive crowd. I was personally attacked by a bunch of the students for suggesting that maybe more conditioning might be a good idea. * Toxic gatekeeping - whether you're physically able to do things safely or not doesn't seem to matter - I was given "movement quality" as an excuse, rather than something specific or actionable. It boggles the mind how someone can say a student needs to work on "movement quality" and not immediately understand it as toxic gatekeeping. Of course, favorites get to skip past gatekeeping, and their technique doesn't matter. Management endorses this form of toxicity. I wish I didn't need to write this. I asked them, practically begged them, over and over again, to change their ways. All I wanted was to have the same opportunities as everybody else.

I took the beginner Lyra class and I was nervous but the instructor was very welcoming and encouraging. Love the studio.

My daughter has been going to Aerial Dragons for a little over 2 years now. We absolutely love them and their instructors! My daughters strength, flexibility, and confidence has grown so much. She loves going to class and never wants to miss!

There are also ground classes that help you gather strength, flexibility and work on your dance techniques. The environment is amazing and quite encouraging.

I love training here, l love the energy, the vibe. The shows put up by the students of the school are always amazing and high quality! COME FLY WITH US!

Their facility is huge, clean, and full of awesome people. Alannis is the best!!

My wife cancelled your service in June. You guys are STILL trying to charge her despite her calling and emailing multiple times. No one has ever returned her calls or emails.

I went here for the Lyra classes and silks and I absolutely loved it they make sure your comfortable and the inspire you to not give up I truly love this place and will come back to it ❤️

This studio is a family. It is a safe space to release all your emotions, strengthen your mind and body, build relationships with fellow athletes, and spread your wings into the circus world. I have built forever relationships with the Dragons. I am grateful for all that Aerial Dragons Studios provides for creative humans.
