Biography
| Biography | Jordan and Clayton created their aerial studio from the ground up. There were no other aerial schools, or anything even similar, in the entire state of South Carolina! They built out the facility to handle the unique safety requirements. They built the community of curious movers who give life to their space. They started small with just a few classes per week, and organically grew into a successful studio by responding to their students and always diving deeper into their material.
Jordan and Clayton strongly believe that aerial is truly for every body. Can’t climb? No problem. Not strong enough to even grip the apparatus? They’ve got suggestions, modifications, and fun things for you try. Jordan and Clayton have spent over a decade honing their curriculum and progressions to give anybody who wants it a deep learning experience in aerial arts.
Seeing the effects on their 5,000+ students, and how many “Ah-ha” moments have been generated with their creative drills and progressions inspired them to create Aerial Fit Online. Because everybody starts as a beginner, they’ve developed a vast beginner curriculum and effective ways to take students to the next level.
For the more avid students they’ve created a unique curriculum for developing student showcases that gives their students the experience of performing in a real show. They wanted to share that experience and those resources because they truly believe that any body can benefit from circus arts, and that benefit can be more than meets the eye.
As busy studio owners and instructors, they know that many aerial instructors have limited time in their schedule. Everybody wants to help their students succeed, but without the time and experience to draw on it can sometimes be difficult to know how to help your student. That’s where their experience, and the 20,000+ hours of time they’ve put into their curriculum come into play! Their motivation in creating this resource is to help teachers succeed, so their students can thrive. |
