Cocoon: Aerial conditioning, C-shaping & Pilates

This improver-level and up class is designed to strengthen and support your aerial practice through a unique blend of aerial conditioning, C-shaping skills, and Pilates principles. Whether you’re looking to refine technique, build strength, or bring fresh conditioning exercises into your personal training or teaching, this session will provide valuable tools to take home.

Kate’s passion for Pilates grew from her own aerial journey, recognizing its power in both injury prevention and enhancing aerial performance. She has shared her Aerial Pilates workshop at events such as Belfast Rope Meet (2024), Vertical Play (2025), and Lisbon Silks Meet (2025).

This class serves as a “supportive” session – perfect for those wanting a break from high-intensity flying while still engaging in deep, focused movement. Expect a challenge, but also a chance to reconnect with your body in a way that complements and enhances your aerial practice.

What to Expect:
✔ Aerial conditioning drills for strength and longevity
✔ Introducing C-shaping technique for fluidity and control
✔ Pilates-based exercises for core stability and injury prevention
✔ A session that balances challenge with mindful movement

Join Kate for a grounded yet powerful exploration of movement that will elevate your aerial practice from the inside out!
