Aerial Session Class Absence Policy – Effective as of May 2025

Report your Class Absence From Aerial Silks Session Classes

A session aerial class is a series of aerial classes that take place over a specific period, typically a month. Students commit to attending the same class time each week during the session. This format allows for consistent progress and skill development as students build upon what they’ve learned each week. Essentially, it’s a structured approach to aerial training that provides a dedicated time slot for students to focus on improving their aerial abilities.

Why do we have an absence policy? 

  • If you miss a class, a different student who needs to take a make-up class can use your spot. 
  • There are many students who are waiting for a spot in a session or drop-in class. 
  • Taking class is how you will progress, learn, and become a stronger aerialist. Missing many classes may cause you to forget what you have learned. 
  • Teachers prepare class material based on the class roster and we can better prepare if we know who is coming and who is not.
