Night Flight Aerial & Circus Arts — Local services in Portland

I took a beginner aerial class here just over a year ago, work no prior experience whatsoever, and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made! I am easily bored with workouts, and prior to coming here I thought I just didn't develop strength very easily. I'm now spending hours a week here and always look forward to my classes, even though they're some of the most physically intense workouts I've ever done, and I've gained more upper body strength than I ever thought possible! The instructors are all amazingly talented, both on their apparatuses and at teaching all levels. I've particularly enjoyed silks classes with Ashley and Paulina, both of whom are so sweet and also constantly push me to improve. There's a strong emphasis on conditioning and safety, and I've been able to safely push my flexibility in ways that used to be dangerous for my body prior to coming to night flight.

I love Night Flight, it is an amazing aerial studio. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, skilled in their art, and caring.

I highly recommend Night Flight for beginners or...

Love, love, love Night Flight! I've been attending classes on-and-off since late 2015, taking time off for unrelated injuries, and I'm finally getting back in the swing of things - hopefully for long term! I've taken Beginner 1, Beginner 2, Silks 1, Stretching, and, now, Straps 1. Throughout most of my classes, I've been wildly lucky to have Ashley as a teacher. She's assisted me with my straddle ups, splits, bridges, and more; she's been supportive and encouraging through all of my injuries. I've had other teachers, of course, and have yet to find any one I did not enjoy being around. The atmosphere at Night Flight, in general, is focused on fun, safety, and progress. It's a fantastic studio and I will be taking classes for...
