Learning self love through aerials

We remember the first time Megan came into the studio, she was so quiet & reserved that we worried we were a tad intimidating with our introduction. It took a while to get to know her, especially since we mainly spoke to her over emails & didn’t take her for any classes. It was only really since the beginning of troupe last year that we started to be able to connect with her better. She is an absolute delight, and we think that anyone willing to be this vulnerable is incredibly brave <3.

Megans Journey:

Due to having had many surgeries as a child I have always felt insecure and struggled with body confidence. In 2016 I moved to Australia from the UK, this pushed me out of my comfort zone and not having family or friends around me highlighted my insecurities more and more. After a year of being in Australia I knew it was time to take control and I was motivated to do something that would improve my confidence and growing love for myself.

After a few hours googling 'fun hobbies’, I came across aerial silks and very quickly Aerialfit.

Right from the moment I walked into the studio I felt at home and the studio values made me feel accepted for who I was.

But as much as I loved the studio values and felt right at home I still wasn't sure if aerials was for me.

This feeling was gone the moment I touched a silk, I fell in love with aerials in an instant and even though I couldn't hold my own body weight and had no upper body strength this did not deter me.

Aerial silks has grown not only my muscles but also my confidence and has made me accept and love the body that I have. Aerials has shown me what my body is capable of and how much we should all love and appreciate what amazing things our bodies can do. After a year and a half of being at the studio I still had problem areas that I was not seeing much improvement or growth in such as lower abs and flexibility. I decided to give Pilates a go as I had heard great things from other students. It did not disappoint, since starting a weekly Pilates class I have seen amazing improvements leading to me achieve my goal of conquering straight leg straddles!

I cannot thank all the team at Aerialfit enough, I only wish that I had discovered AerialFit sooner.

I remember being 5 or 6 and going with my mum to the Marconi Club for aerobics every week. I was supposed to sit up the back with the other kids, but my legend of a mama let me join in with her, as long as we stayed in the corner out of everyone’s way. I don’t remember much from the class, but I do remember feeling incredible energy & joy. To this day it is one of my fondest memories, which is remarkable considering I hardly remember it at all. That’s why when Josh came to me asking if we could put on an 80’s aerobics class, I said yes, even though it doesn’t really fit our studio brand. I knew that it would bring so much light & laughter that we absolutely had to run it! For two weeks after the class, I heard so many stories from everyone who attended. Apparently the atmosphere was like a grand final footy game: absolutely electric! This class will make a guest appearance every now & then on the schedule, if you need any convincing, here are some reviews from its debut. It can only get better! Josh’s class was easily the happiest hour of my day! I couldn’t stop smiling! If I was to describe the class to someone, I’d tell them to expect an hour of positive vibes, high energy, amazing tracks, and a lot of fluro. It’s so much fun that you (almost) forget you’re working out, ‘till you realise at the end that your 80s themed eyeshadow is no longer where it used to be. There was such a great buzz to the class. Everyone was in such high spirits and it made for such a great time. I’d also say that it doesn’t matter if you haven’t tried aerobics before, it really does cater to everyone. Over all; loved it! Daniela M Josh’s class was an eclectic mix of everything great about the 80’s - fast-paced dance combos that were both fun and workout based, moves that channeled authentic 80’s movies and musicals, aerobics mixed with classic pilates moves and a bangin’ playlist to sweat to! I loved every minute and couldn’t stop singing along :) Emily M I had such an amazing time! The music was good and the dance moves were easy to learn. I would recommend to everyone who wants a fun workout but still challenging enough! I can’t wait for the next class! Angela T
