Hollywood Aerial Arts offers beginners through advanced flyers the chance to experience and learn aerial and other circus arts in a safe, supportive and non competitive environment.  It's a perfect place to practice existing technique or learn from the start.  Located minutes from LAX, Hollywood Aerial Arts is located in a 10,000 sq. ft production facility which is the home of Ray Pierce Productions.

We offer High Flying Trapeze, Single & Double Static Trapeze, Hoop, Bungee, Aerial Hammock, Spanish Web/Corde Lisse', Aerial Cradle and Tightrope/Low Wire.

For our Flying Trapeze classes, your classes will begin with a warm up to get the body in a relaxed state ready to fly.  Then we will work on the practice bar to go over the elements of basic swing.

After that is developed, we will mount the platform in the air to begin flying!  All sessions are conducted with safety lines and a spotting belt to assure your safety and security at all times.  Everyone progresses at their own pace as you learn the fundamentals of the basic swing.  As you progress, you will learn different tricks as your abilities grow, all with the goal of transforming you mentally, emotionally and physically in this amazing and enlightening activity.

Classes:

Flying Trapeze - A dynamic activity involving swinging on a trapeze, performing various tricks in the air then being caught by a catcher on another trapeze.  The High Flying Trapeze is outdoors at 32' tall with a full net and safety system. 

Static Trapeze - Activities around, above and under a single trapeze bar, typically held up by ropes instead of cables.  It involves strength, agility and balance as the body wraps and works around the bar.

Spanish Web - A cloth covered soft rope that is used for climbing and aerial acrobatics involving various wraps, knots and spinning activities with a hand and foot loop near the top.  Corde' Lisse is the same rope technique without the loop.

Tissu - Aerial apparatus involving long lengths of fabric which is used for various wraps, hangs and drops resulting in a breathtaking combination of strength and beauty.

Lyra/Hoop - A round hoop that is used for various aerial maneuvers featuring balancing. spinning, and contortion.

Aerial Bungee - An art form involving hanging suspended in a 2 point harness attached to long lengths of bungee cord.  The class consists of high level cardio-vascular activity involving flips, spins and inverted positions while learning to balance your body in the air utilizing the arms and legs to control your flight.

Hammock - A loop of fabric which you learn similar tissu wraps in as well as stretching it out and doing positions inside the fabric.
