"This is an absolutely fantastic training opportunity and experience!!!! Rebekah and Julianna share a wealth of knowledge and expertise, and they teach and demonstrate together as if they're of one mind.....amazing! I had the experience of a lifetime when I attended the first teacher training at Marsh Studio (the most wonderful studio and its owners who are truly very special people) in May. I came away with technical incite, many more tools in my toolbox for helping and guiding beginning students, a whole new teaching approach for developing students (yeah global learning!!!), and most importantly: life-long friends and mentors. If you're thinking of doing it...don't hesitate....sign up ASAP!!!" ~ Lorraine B.

About
The following courses are part of the Born to Fly™ Curriculum. All who meet the prerequisites are welcome to train with us. We no longer offer certificates. If you are interested in having a sort of "check of understanding" or a recommendation of your teaching for a studio to verify that you have absorbed and understood the material, then we recommend going through our RTAP process, which is now sold separately from the teacher training, Teaching Philosophy and Methods Aerial fabric has a trend of being the most popular vertical apparatus in recreational programs. However, starting students with climbs may not be the most accessible way to begin an aerial journey. If you teach early beginners, we highly recommend (but do not require) starting the Aerial Sling 1 Teacher Training. In the Born to Fly™ methodology, we expose our students to fabric theory early on through puzzles and challenge their artistry through creative tasks. Our goal is to develop an aerialist’s strength, intelligence, and artistry simultaneously so nothing gets left behind. We ask students to spend more time with each skill, which allows them to build strength over a longer period of time before progressing to the next level. ONLINE Aerial SLING or FABRIC

What You Will Learn: This training focuses on Level 1 Sling skills as well as anatomy for aerial teachers, how to plan the perfect warm-up, safe practices, teaching methods, and classroom management. We strongly emphasize progressions, particularly to develop a student's first inversion. You will work with the classic sling skills as well as several skills that are helpful for proper development of aerial muscles that we’ve developed over the years. |
There is a huge difference between teachers who can show and talk about textbook information, versus ones who live, breathe, apply, and truly understand the information. [Born to Fly Instructors] are the type who live, breathe, and are able to really break all the information down into something amazing. ~Monica C
