Build the confidence to practice, progress, and teach aerial hammock through a proven, progressive methodology developed over decades of real-world experience.<\/p>\n

In this immersive four-day training, internationally recognized aerial educator and AIReal Yoga\u00ae creator Carmen Curtis will help you expand your understanding of the hammock beyond the movements you may already know. You\u2019ll explore foundational aerial skills, safe alignment, body mechanics, progressions, modifications, creative transitions, teaching techniques, and lesson development\u2014all within a supportive environment designed to meet you where you are.<\/p>\n

This training welcomes AIReal Yoga\u00ae and aerial yoga teachers, aerial hammock practitioners, experienced students, current aerial instructors, and those interested in teaching in the future. AIReal Yoga\u00ae or aerial yoga experience provides a valuable foundation, and no previous aerial circus, dance, or performance experience is required.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Whether you want to deepen your personal practice, add new dimensions to your teaching, begin your aerial hammock teaching journey, or bring a structured curriculum into your studio, you\u2019ll leave with practical tools and a clear roadmap for continued growth.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Participants receive 24 hours of hands-on instruction, personalized feedback, a downloadable curriculum manual, instructional videos, ready-to-use lesson plans, continued-learning resources, and a Certificate of Completion.<\/p>\n

Come ready to move, explore, play, and surprise yourself.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

Why This Training Is Different<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t simply a weekend of learning new aerial skills.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It\u2019s an immersive learning experience.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Over four inspiring days, you\u2019ll move, explore, create, laugh, ask questions, practice, receive individualized feedback, and develop a much deeper understanding of aerial hammock than can be gained from simply watching videos or collecting tricks.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Each lesson builds upon the next, allowing you to truly absorb the material rather than simply trying to keep up.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll leave with greater confidence, a clearer understanding of movement, practical teaching tools, and a roadmap for continuing your aerial journey long after the training has ended.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Begin Low. Build Strong. Progress with Confidence.<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

Throughout the training we\u2019ll primarily use a low-set hammock.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Beginning lower allows you to safely develop proper technique, efficient movement patterns, body awareness, coordination, strength, confidence, and creativity before progressing higher.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Low-hammock work is also incredibly practical for studios with lower ceilings and for teachers who want to introduce students to aerial movement in an accessible, supportive environment.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The foundational principles learned during the training can be adapted to longer hammocks and higher rigging points, giving participants a versatile methodology they can continue developing in a variety of aerial hammock settings.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Because when the foundation is strong, everything else becomes easier.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Learn the Method, Not Just the Material<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

One of the greatest gifts this training offers is learning how to learn.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Instead of simply memorizing sequences, you\u2019ll begin understanding how every aerial movement is built.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll learn how to recognize prerequisites, break skills into manageable steps, identify appropriate progressions, offer modifications, and know when students are ready to safely advance.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This methodology continues growing with you.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

As your own aerial practice expands over the coming years, you\u2019ll have a framework for understanding how to safely teach new skills instead of feeling like you\u2019re constantly starting over.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Whether You Want to Practice or Teach\u2026<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

Some participants join because they simply love aerial hammock.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Others dream of becoming teachers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Many come somewhere in between.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

No matter your goal, this training meets you where you are.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

If your goal is to deepen your personal practice, you\u2019ll leave with greater confidence, improved technique, and a deeper understanding of movement.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

If your goal is teaching, you\u2019ll begin building the foundation for becoming a knowledgeable, safe, and inspiring instructor.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This training is not about producing perfect performers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It\u2019s about helping every participant become a more confident mover, learner, and\u2014if they choose\u2014a future teacher.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

A Proven Curriculum Built from Decades of Experience<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

For aspiring teachers and studio owners, one of the most valuable parts of this training is receiving Carmen\u2019s structured teaching curriculum.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Rather than wondering what to teach after students learn the basics, you\u2019ll receive a clear, progressive roadmap that helps students safely develop confidence, strength, creativity, and skill over time.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This curriculum has been refined through:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 More than 25 years of aerial experience<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 More than 20 years of teaching<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 Over 17 years of owning and operating a successful aerial studio<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Every progression, lesson plan, and teaching method has been tested, refined, and improved through thousands of hours of real-world teaching with students of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll leave with a proven system\u2014not just ideas.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

What You\u2019ll Explore<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

This training is ideal for:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 Aerial hammock practitioners wanting to deepen their practice<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 Aerialists looking to strengthen their foundation<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 AIReal Yoga\u00ae teachers<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 Experienced hammock students considering teaching<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You do not<\/strong> need to currently be a teacher or have previous aerial circus, dance, or performance experience to attend. Some experience using an aerial hammock is recommended, and AIReal Yoga\u00ae or aerial yoga experience provides an excellent foundation for this training.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

What You\u2019ll Receive<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

Your registration includes:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 24 hours of immersive, hands-on instruction with Carmen Curtis<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 Personalized coaching and individual feedback<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Like every movement discipline, true mastery comes through continued practice, observation, experience, and teaching.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Teaching readiness naturally develops at different rates for every individual.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Our goal is not simply to certify teachers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Our goal is to help cultivate thoughtful, confident, and responsible aerial educators who continue growing long after the training has ended.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Relationship to the AIReal Yoga\u00ae 50-Hour Training<\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/p>\n

This training is separate from, yet beautifully complements, the AIReal Yoga\u00ae 50-Hour Teacher Training.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

While the AIReal Yoga\u00ae training focuses on using the hammock as a prop to support and deepen the practice of yoga, the Foundational Aerial Hammock Training explores the creative world of aerial movement, transitions, aerial arts, and dance-inspired skills.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Each training stands beautifully on its own, and together they provide a comprehensive understanding of both yoga and aerial hammock methodology.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

No refunds will be issued for cancellations received 30 days or fewer before the training begins or after the training has started.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

If Still & Moving Center cancels a training or the required minimum enrollment is not reached, participants will receive a full refund of the tuition paid for that training. Still & Moving Center and AIReal Yoga\u00ae are not responsible for participants\u2019 airfare, lodging, or other travel expenses.

Carmen Curtis<\/h1>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Carmen Curtis is one of the pioneers of modern aerial education and the internationally recognized creator of AIReal Yoga\u00ae, the first aerial yoga teacher training recognized by Yoga Alliance. Her career spans more than 25 years as an aerial performer, educator, choreographer, and movement specialist.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Before dedicating her career to education, Carmen performed professionally in large-scale productions including Le R\u00eave<\/em>, choreographed for Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Formation<\/em> World Tour, worked with celebrities and elite athletes, and has spent decades helping shape the aerial community through innovative programming, teacher trainings, and curriculum development.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Today, thousands of students and teachers around the world have studied her methodology, making this a rare opportunity to learn directly from the creator herself.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Drawing from more than 25 years of aerial experience<\/strong>, 20+ years of teaching<\/strong>, and over 17 years of successfully operating The Aerial Studio<\/strong>, Carmen has developed a progressive methodology rooted in alignment, safety, functional movement, creativity, and individualized instruction.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Her supportive teaching style helps students understand not only what to do, but why movement works\u2014giving them the confidence to continue practicing, progressing, and teaching for years to come.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Students appreciate Carmen\u2019s ability to make complex movement approachable, empowering, and enjoyable while creating an environment where everyone feels supported regardless of experience level.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

What Students Appreciate About Training with Carmen<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Past participants consistently share that Carmen\u2019s ability to break movement down makes complex skills feel approachable and achievable. Students leave feeling confident rather than overwhelmed, and teachers find tremendous value in receiving a structured curriculum they can continue using long after the training ends.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certificate of Completion<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Upon successfully completing the training, participants will receive a Foundational Aerial Hammock Training Certificate of Completion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those wishing to teach, this training provides an exceptional foundation for becoming a safe and knowledgeable aerial hammock instructor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like every movement discipline, true mastery comes through continued practice, observation, experience, and teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teaching readiness naturally develops at different rates for every individual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our goal is not simply to certify teachers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our goal is to help cultivate thoughtful, confident, and responsible aerial educators who continue growing long after the training has ended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relationship to the AIReal Yoga\u00ae 50-Hour Training<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

This training is separate from, yet beautifully complements, the AIReal Yoga\u00ae 50-Hour Teacher Training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the AIReal Yoga\u00ae training focuses on using the hammock as a prop to support and deepen the practice of yoga, the Foundational Aerial Hammock Training explores the creative world of aerial movement, transitions, aerial arts, and dance-inspired skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each training stands beautifully on its own, and together they provide a comprehensive understanding of both yoga and aerial hammock methodology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Refund Policy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

All withdrawal requests must be submitted in writing. For cancellations received more than 30 days before the training begins, tuition will be refunded less a $250 nonrefundable registration fee. No refunds will be issued for cancellations received 30 days or fewer before the training begins or after the training has started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Still & Moving Center cancels a training or the required minimum enrollment is not reached, participants will receive a full refund of the tuition paid for that training. Still & Moving Center and AIReal Yoga\u00ae are not responsible for participants\u2019 airfare, lodging, or other travel expenses. Participants should wait until the training is officially confirmed before making any nonrefundable travel arrangements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carmen Curtis<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carmen Curtis is one of the pioneers of modern aerial education and the internationally recognized creator of AIReal Yoga\u00ae, the first aerial yoga teacher training recognized by Yoga Alliance. Her career spans more than 25 years as an aerial performer, educator, choreographer, and movement specialist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before dedicating her career to education, Carmen performed professionally in large-scale productions including Le R\u00eave<\/em>, choreographed for Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Formation<\/em> World Tour, worked with celebrities and elite athletes, and has spent decades helping shape the aerial community through innovative programming, teacher trainings, and curriculum development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, thousands of students and teachers around the world have studied her methodology, making this a rare opportunity to learn directly from the creator herself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drawing from more than 25 years of aerial experience<\/strong>, 20+ years of teaching<\/strong>, and over 17 years of successfully operating The Aerial Studio<\/strong>, Carmen has developed a progressive methodology rooted in alignment, safety, functional movement, creativity, and individualized instruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her supportive teaching style helps students understand not only what to do, but why movement works\u2014giving them the confidence to continue practicing, progressing, and teaching for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students appreciate Carmen\u2019s ability to make complex movement approachable, empowering, and enjoyable while creating an environment where everyone feels supported regardless of experience level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Students Appreciate About Training with Carmen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Past participants consistently share that Carmen\u2019s ability to break movement down makes complex skills feel approachable and achievable. Students leave feeling confident rather than overwhelmed, and teachers find tremendous value in receiving a structured curriculum they can continue using long after the training ends.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
