I want to take some time to discuss one of our least favorite things to work on at the studio, but one of the most important... conditioning! It is probably the part of class that most of us dread the most. There is a reason conditioning is featured in any class you...

Our bodies change. And they change constantly.  Over my two and a half years as a student at Aerial, my body has gone through a TON of changes.  My weight has fluctuated up and down a 50 pound swing, I had a miscarriage, I had a uterine surgery, I had a baby. I see...
