Aerial Acrobatics for Beginners in Berlin

Looking for a new hobby in Berlin? Want to try aerial acrobatics, even if you have absolutely no previous experience?

Studio LUFT, located in the centre of Berlin at Friedrichstraße 14, is a place for adults and teens aged 15+ who want to discover aerial arts in a welcoming, small-group setting.

Our aerial studio is just a few minutes from Checkpoint Charlie, easily accessible by U6 and U2, as well as from S-Bahn Anhalter Bahnhof.

At LUFT, complete beginners can try different aerial disciplines, including Aerial Hoop (Lyra), Aerial Silks and Aerial Hammock. You don’t need to be strong, flexible or have experience in gymnastics, dance or circus to start. We teach the foundations step by step.

Three ways to start aerial acrobatics at LUFT

1. Beginner INTRO classes

Want to simply book a class and give aerial a try? Look for classes marked INTRO in our regular schedule.

INTRO classes are designed specifically for absolute beginners and have a maximum of 4 participants, giving you plenty of individual attention and time to learn the basics safely.

Our current beginner aerial classes in Berlin include:

  • Monday, 18:15 – Aerial Hoop INTRO
  • Tuesday, 18:20 – Aerial Silks INTRO
  • Sunday, 13:00 – Intro to Aerial Acrobatics
    A different aerial apparatus each week – a great option if you don’t know yet whether hoop, silks or hammock is for you.

You don’t need any special equipment. Bring comfortable sports clothes that cover the backs of your knees and waist, socks and a bottle of water. We train without shoes.

2. 4-Week Aerial Intro Courses

Prefer to learn with the same group over several weeks?

Our 4-week beginner aerial courses include four meetings and approximately 5 hours of training in a small group of up to 8 participants.

These courses are ideal if you want a structured introduction to aerial acrobatics and enough time to become familiar with fundamental techniques, positions and transitions.

New Intro Courses are announced regularly. Check our current courses here: CLICK!

3. Private Aerial Classes

If you prefer individual attention, want to start together with a friend, or simply need a more flexible schedule, you can also book a private aerial class in Berlin.

Choose your preferred apparatus and learn with one of our experienced LUFT instructors at your own pace.

For private Aerial Hoop, Aerial Silks or Aerial Hammock classes, contact us at office@luft-studio.de.

Can I start aerial as an adult?

Yes! Many of our students discover aerial acrobatics for the first time as adults.

You don’t have to “get fit first” before coming to class. Beginner aerial training itself helps you gradually develop the strength, coordination, mobility and body awareness you need.

Whether you’re searching for an unusual new hobby in Berlin, want to try circus and aerial arts as an adult, or have always looked at aerial hoop and silks and thought I’d love to try that – our beginner classes are the place to start.

No previous experience required. Come as you are and discover which apparatus is yours.
