Chicago Aerial Arts,

"Chicago Aerial Arts is the best aerial gym in the city! My journey began with zero aerial experience, and within only a short amount of time after joining, I've gained an incredible amount of knowledge. The staff and teachers are amazing and exhibit remarkable patience, always willing to thoroughly explain and demonstrate moves. For anyone interested in exploring aerial arts, I highly recommend this place!"

"I trained aerial here a few times and had the opportunity to host a flexibility workshop here. The space was VERY CLEAN (not common for a lot of circus spaces) and I felt safe when training aerial. The workshop I taught was very successful, the owner is easy to work with, the students were supportive of one another, and the vibe was overall very positive!"

"I’ve been a student with Chicago Aerial Arts going on 3 years now. And it’s been a great experience. Everyone working the front desk is so sweet and friendly. I love the welcoming no one’s a stranger vibe. I took a trial and immediately felt like I could find a little aerial home here. Ashley the owner and my hammock level 3 instructor is fabulous! Ashley is so attentive, patient and personable with us, but also challenging when she sees you have potential for growth. That’s a combo I like to have in a teacher! 5 stars in my book!"

"This place has been so good to me. The way the classes are set up have improved my flexibility and strength and given such a lovely space to be artistic, it's absolutely an art along with a workout. The instructors and owner make you feel at home and make space for you no matter what level or ability you are joining with. i am very very grateful somewhere like Chicago Aerial Arts exists for me to be a part of "

"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."
