Spring Has Sprung: Aerial Performance Series

Mother Nature is Calling… Will You Answer?

Step into the season of love and renewal with our next multi-apparatus (aerial hammock, lyra, pole) performance theme: “Spring Has Sprung.”

We’re calling all aerialists, dancers, and dreamers to embody the elements—earth, wind, fire, and flora—in a show that celebrates nature’s untamed beauty and vibrant awakening. Think ivy-draped goddesses, mischievous nymphs, ethereal fairies, and butterflies taking flight.

Expect floral-inspired visuals, lush costuming, and fun seasonal cocktails that bring this wild garden to life. Whether you’re channeling the grounded strength of the earth, the flow of the wind, or the fiery passion of spring’s rebirth, this is your chance to create something magical.

Have you been wanting to take your pole journey to the next level and share your movement with an audience? This series is all about building your own performance piece with support and encouragement from your teacher every step of the way.

Over 13 weeks, you’ll choose a song that inspires you, create choreography that fits your style, and shape it into a performance you’ll feel proud to share. The first 9 weeks are about exploring ideas and building your routine, and the last 4 weeks focus on polishing, rehearsing in the showcase space, and bringing your performance to life.

This series is open to all levels, but we recommend that students feel comfortable with beginner spins and transitions before signing up.

The series culminates in a live showcase at ON St. Elmo on Saturday, May 2nd, for friends, family, and community.

Throughout the series, you’ll have guidance on:

• Creating movement that highlights your strengths
• Building a character or theme for your performance
• Adding artistry, confidence, and stage presence

You will grow your performance in a supportive environment that celebrates artistry and cheers on every performer!
