Parties & workshops

We start off by warming up, including playing a game or two to get heart rates up and muscles moving. After this, we split the children into groups (maximum of 4 per group), and under the supervision of an instructor, they move around different stations to try out aerial hammock, static trapeze, aerial silks and aerial hoop. (Please note: we don't always include aerial silks for those aged 8 or under, or parties with attendees numbering between 9-12. However, if this is something the birthday girl/boy really wants to do, just let us know and we'll include it.)

We end with a few stretches, and then arrange them around their favourite piece of apparatus that day so parents/guardians can take a group birthday photo.

Our parties have a maximum capacity of 16 children.

While every sporting activities has inherent risks, we strive to keep our aerial parties as safe as possible while ensuring that the children enjoy themselves and learn new skills. To this end, we maintain a ratio of at least one teacher for every four children.

All instructors are experienced aerialists who have undergone enhanced DBS checks and first aid training.

We require all participating children's parents/guardians to sign a PAR-Q (Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire) and waiver (click here to view). This is so we can be aware of any past or continuing conditions (e.g, scoliosis, hyper-mobility/ Ehlers Danlos syndrome, Epipen requirements, diabetes) and have the appropriate measures in place to ensure their safety.

Prices for an hour:
3-4 attendees (one instructor): £125
5-8 attendees (two instructors) £192
9-12 attendees (three instructors) £246
13-16 attendees (four instructors) £286

(Charities booking with us can receive a 15% discount.)

This can be paid all upfront, or you can pay a 20% deposit to secure the place, with the remainder of the balance due two weeks before the event.

The activities can be booked for up to 90 minutes - but for most children, 1 hour is enough. Aerial is hard work!

If you would like to have an after party with snacks and cake, the dining room next to the hall can be rented at £50ph. While we don't provide food, you are very welcome to bring your own.

We ask that you leave the room in the condition you found it, and bring along a bin liner in order to take your rubbish home with you.

Once we have a date and time we will send you an email with a link to book online.

We hold our children’s parties at The Grove Junior School in Harpenden.

To get there, (10 Dark Lane, AL5 1QD) drive all the way up Dark Lane (it looks like a dead end.) Turn right into the car park, and then facing the building, walk right and then take a left turn around to the front of the building. As you walk in the door, the dining hall is right in front of you and the sports hall is on the right.

We don’t currently hold our regular children’s parties at our other venue of the Yoga Hall in St Albans, but we do sometimes run workshops for teens/adults/charities there.

During school term time and holidays, we offer our parties on Sundays with start times from 11.30am - 2.00pm.

During school holidays, we also have availability on Saturdays with a start time between 10.00am and 2.00pm.

We don’t offer Saturday parties during termtime due to our regular classes taking place all day.

Please also note that availability is also subject to instructor availability, particularly with larger groups that require more instructors.

For all workshops, please ensure children wear leggings that cover the backs of knees, and a leotard or tight-fitting t-shirt or sports top. We strongly advise against wearing loosefitting t-shirts – it's easy for them to fall over upside-down heads, even if tucked in! Similarly, please no crop tops or exposed skin round the midriff. If children don't have a leotard, swimming costumes under leggings work well too. Please make sure parents of all participating children are aware of this. Children must be barefoot or have grippy/trampoline socks.

The parents/carers of the birthday child can been in the sports hall to watch/take pictures; we ask that other parents stay outside in the dining hall.

Parents who are in the hall must stay a safe distance away from the equipment stations and refrain from trying to teach the children or give them guidance – that's what our experienced instructors are there for.

Sorry, no – our parties are for those aged 7-13 (if it's for a 7th birthday party and some of the invitees are 6 and a bit, this is fine.)
