Had a blast at their acro jams! The people are very welcoming and helpful- sharing skills, spotting and helping with form. The aerial silks instructors do an excellent job breaking down complex skills and are very supportive. The Lyra instructors create fun choreography to work on in class. They really focus on safety and injury prevention. Highly recommend!

Update:
Really great workshop selection including Lyra, handstands, partner acro, flexibility, and belly dance workshops.

I have taken a private lesson in dance trapeze. The instruction was excellent.

I have also been to a few flow Jams. Their instructor is really talented and helpful. She does a great job of working with you to learn poi, flags, fan, and hoop. I have shown her a video of something I would like to learn and she breaks it down into clear instruction.

If you want all things circus this is your place!

Everyone is so welcoming! The instructors are knowledgeable and safety focused, and there's a great community of regular and drop-in students. I love how much variety there is in class options - silks, lyra, acro, and flow arts happen regularly, but I've already taken workshops on handstands, belly dance, and splits training. Their flexibility training and conditioning classes give options for beginners and advanced students, but it always feels like people are cheering each other on, regardless of what skill level they're working on.

I have taken several classes at GLCC. Every class challenges me and causes me to grow as both an aerialist and flow artist. Jenn and Katherine have done an amazing job creating a safe and supportive space.

I was always drawn to aerial silks but wasn’t sure if it was something I could do personally. Katherine, Jenn and Sabrina are such amazing instructors that they have given me the confidence not only to try new things but also to build my strength. I have become completely hooked now and love the friends I have made. My favorite classes are Intermediate Silks Combos, Flexibility and Intermediate Aerial Silks but I also like the fact that I can go to the Beginner Silks Combos to strengthen my skills. I also like the different pricing packages and the fact that I don’t have to commit to a long period. I would encourage anyone who is interested to try it!

I have known these excellent instructors for many years now. They have great depth of knowledge and an ability to communicate with different kinds of learners. Safety is very important and they know how to spot properly as well as make sure students are safe as they execute skills in the air. They have provided a supportive, inclusive community that is a joy to be a part of.
