Plus Size Aerial Program
Circus is for
Every. Body.
Sky Candy is committed to community, accessibility, and joy in all of our programming.
While all of our classes are size-inclusive and welcoming to all bodies, our dedicated Plus Size Program offers a supportive learning environment just for fat folx. In a world where fitfluencers and diet culture constantly bombard us, we strive to create a space where we can move our bodies with joy, free from weight loss talk and the judgmental nonsense that is too often ingrained in movement spaces.
Created by Ginger Snaps and stewarded by Sky Candy teachers Ginger, Kalyn Williams, Ivy Baron, and Leigh Fisher, our dedicated Plus Size Program offers series classes, drop-ins, and workshops in Lyra, Sling, Flexibility, Burlesque, and more!
Students can expect to have fun, build strength, and move their bodies joyfully. Each class offers adaptations and modifications for all bodies as well as multi-level pathways for almost any skill.
Current Plus-Size Class Options
At Sky Candy, we believe that Circus is for Every Body, and we welcome all bodies into any of our classes. We also recognize that fat folx deal with systemic oppression that may include trauma around fitness classes or movement practices. We offer the following classes taught by fat teachers who combine their years of study and practice with the lived experience of existing in a larger body.
