Artistic Development Aerial Training Empowerment Project

Program Schedule: Fridays | 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM Program Overview Ages 6–13 The Soaring Stars Program is a small-group aerial and movement program created for children who may benefit from extra patience, encouragement, and individualized support. Using aerial arts, fun movement activities, creative play, and positive social experiences, children are encouraged to build confidence, coordination, strength, friendships, and a love of trying new things—all in a welcoming environment where every child is celebrated. Because every child learns differently, we meet students where they are and encourage them to progress at their own pace. There is no pressure to keep up with others—every success is worth celebrating. Fridays | 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM Limited Enrollment - to provide plenty of individual attention. # What We Do Throughout the afternoon, students enjoy a variety of activities including: * Movement games and warm-ups * Beginner-friendly aerial instruction * Balance and coordination activities * Snack and social time * Team-building games * Creative movement and imaginative play * Relaxation and cool-down activities Students will have the opportunity to explore: * Aerial Hammock * Lyra (Aerial Hoop) * Silks * Spiral * Beginner Pole Fitness All activities are adapted to each child's comfort level and experience. # What Children Can Gain Our goal is for every child to leave feeling proud of themselves.

Our instructors focus on creating a positive experience where children can explore movement, build confidence, make friends, and celebrate their own progress. With intentionally small class sizes, each student receives personal attention in a calm, supportive environment. Every child grows in their own way, and every milestone matters. # Our Promise At Soaring Stars, we celebrate what each child *can* do. Our goal is simple: to create a fun, encouraging place where children feel confident, supported, and excited to learn. Every child deserves the chance to soar. Therapists and Aids welcome for any additional assistance your child may need.
