Aerial Hoop (also known as Lyra) is a large steel hoop, suspended from the ceiling on which you can perform circus aerial acrobatics!

During your Athena Fitness Lyra course, you will discover the beautiful art of Aerial Hoops and will cover a variety of techniques to approach the hoop. This will include getting onto the apparatus, creating shapes and poses, moving within the hoop and using the space around it.

The class will begin with an Athena style warm up concentrating on your upper body strength and core muscles, once the class is completed you will finish with a cool down.

What to wear: It is more comfortable to have skin covered and suggest wearing several layers. Leggings, tights, t- shirts and leotards are all suitable.
