What to Wear/Hygiene/Illness Policies

1. Please help us keep the equipment hygienic for all. We request that students come to class with clean bodies. If a student comes to class with unreasonable body odor or stinky feet, the instructor may ask the student to sit out. Please do not wear excessive fragrances to class.

2. Leggings and a form fitting top is recommended attire for most aerial apparatuses. Protect the underarms by wearing a t-shirt or long sleeve shirt. Leotards are always a great option, or a shirt that can tuck into your pants.

3. Silks, sling and rope students may not wear any jewelry, zippers, velcro, snaps, abrasive fabrics, sequins, rhinestones, or other sharp objects on their person while on their apparatus. These items can rip the silks or rope sheaths.

4. Students need to have reasonably trim nails to use the silks and slings, nails should be short enough that you are able to close your fist and hang onto your apparatus. Sharp or extremely long acrylic nails are not allowed during silks or sling class due to the risk of equipment damage, you may be asked to sit out if you wear these to class.

5. Pole students are advised to wear short/form-fitting shorts and a sleeveless crop top/half top or sports bra. You may wear a t-shirt or tank top, but be aware you may need certain parts of your skin exposed to execute certain skills.
