  1. Momentum Aerial strives to create a safe space for all. Please treat everyone at our studio with respect. There is no discrimination on the basis of race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, nationality, disability, mental status, gender identity, political opinion, or body image.

  2. Sexual harassment, violence, intimidation, or any other non-consensual behavior is strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated by Momentum Aerial or its employees. Momentum staff have the right to ask any person to leave the premises due to improper conduct. You may be asked to not return to the studio if you exhibit threatening behavior or violate these policies.

  3. Arrival to class: Please arrive at least 5 minutes before class time. Students who arrive 10 minutes or more after class starts may be asked to observe class for that session. 

  4. Students may not use equipment without the supervision and immediate approval of an instructor. See Advanced Open Training policies below for when an instructor is not present in the room. 

  5. Students must always have enveloping mats underneath themselves while using any aerial apparatus. 

  6. Do not chew gum in any class. 

  7. Please take off your shoes as you enter the studio.

  8. NO pets allowed with the exception of service animals.

  9. We encourage you to bring any nutritional snacks that you may need during class, but please clean up after yourself and do not leave food at the studio. Please try to avoid eating during class, and always wash hands before getting on apparatuses. Please be mindful of common allergies, like peanuts.

  10. Students may not come to class impaired in any way. Students under the influence of drugs or alcohol, mental distress, or physical injury may be asked to leave or watch class instead of participating.

  11. If a class is going on in the aerial studio, please keep side conversations to a minimum and at low volume. Be aware of your impact on other student’s abilities to focus.

  12. If you are sick, please stay home. If you are coughing, sneezing, or showing visible signs of illness, please do not come to class. Talk with your instructor about doing a make-up class instead. This extends to all contagious conditions that cannot be mitigated through the use of medication or effective barriers. This may pertain to any communicable condition, such as athlete's foot. Please reach out if you have a specific condition in question.
