Flying Ballerinas Aerial Arts And Dance Academy Description

Welcome to the official Facebook Page of Flying Ballerinas Aerial Arts and Dance Academy, WirralŌĆÖs Premier Pole Dance and Aerial Artistry Institution, Located at Unit 14, 304 Cleaveland Street, Birkenhead, Wirral CH41 4JN.

Over recent years, Pole Dance has come to the forefront of the fitness industry as one of the most popular, fun, sociable and effective exercise classes available, with competitions and showcases nationally and globally alike celebrating this unique and empowering art form, which is enjoyed by men and women from all backgrounds.

Pole Dance uniquely combines gymnastics, dance and acro-balance elements to create an exciting sport which is technically challenging; improving posture, building strength, flexibility, cardio-vascular ability and most importantly confidence, and is accessible to women and men of all sizes, ages, shapes and ability levels.

Here at Flying Ballerinas, we aim to bring Pole Dance tuition of the highest quality to students, and in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere share the art of Pole Dance in a fun and safe setting, with a class available to suit everyone.

Flying Ballerinas was founded by principal instructor Toni ŌĆśMistyŌĆÖ Mansell, with the aim to provide a fun, accessible and affordable setting for students to learn Pole Dancing, with the benefit of industry specialist knowledge and experience. Toni is a British Pole Dance Champion and has 10 years Pole Dance Experience, combined with 20 years Dance and Performance training and experience and Qualifications in Physical Education and Fitness (specialising in Dance).

Flying Ballerinas stands for making Pole Dance available to everyone. No matter what size, shape, age, fitness level or experience level, there is a class suitable for everyone, and no-one will ever be discriminated against or made to feel unwelcome. We have a very friendly atmosphere in our classes, with all students supporting one another and having a fun and enjoyable experience.

We have strong links to the Pole Dance industry and keep constantly up to date with current teaching methods, equipment and developments with the sport as a whole. We have close contacts with other Pole Dance Schools around the UK and Europe, and some of the Premier Pole Dance Experts, giving students the opportunity to benefit from Masterclasses, Competitions and Events at all levels, from Amateur to Expert.

Flying Ballerinas is

For Fun ŌĆō We want all students to have a fantastic experience learning with us. Many people want to lose weight and improve their fitness, but are tired of the repetition and boredom of going to the gym. Pole Dance is unique in that it presents new challenges week after week, as soon as one move is achieved, there is always another to work towards! Combining these tricks, with dance elements to music, creates a fun, challenging and relaxed environment, that doesnŌĆÖt even feel like youŌĆÖre exercising!

For Fitness ŌĆō The physical benefits which Pole Dance provides are undisputed. Pole Dance improves posture and flexibility, cardio-vascular ability, creates weight-loss and increases overall fitness, well being and ŌĆō most importantly ŌĆō confidence.

For Flight ŌĆō One of the most exciting achievements in Pole Dance is the first time a student climbs the pole, another is flipping upside down for the first time. One of the most fun and exciting things about Pole Dance is the feeling of exhilaration when spinning, skimming the ceiling and hanging upside down defying gravity! You canŌĆÖt get that pounding a treadmill! ! Here at Flying Ballerinas, we teach these amazing and unique skills in a safe and controlled way, focusing on the beauty and artistry of creating moves on the pole and helping students to achieve the amazing feeling of flight!

**KIDS CIRCUS CLASSES STARTING OCTOBER**
We are absolutely delighted to be adding children's classes to our Autumn timetable, catering to kids aged 6-16, and opening up our beginner sessions for adults to 16-17 year olds in a massive stride towards increasing inclusivity, diversity and well-being access for our Birkenhead studio.

Toni has also received a full Enhanced DBS Certificate, is First Aid trained and fully insured as a master of the Arts via Performing Arts Union Equity.
Please feel free to ask to see any of these qualifications at any time when signing your children up! It's important to know you are in safe, qualified, and insured hands when learning any Aerial Art, and any reputable studio should be more than happy to prove their credentials before entrusting your children to them ­¤śŖ
Our kids classes will be added to our timetable for Tuesday 4.45-5.45pm (ages 6-10) and Thursday 4.45-5.45pm (ages 11-15) from October 16th.

It was a taster session and I LOVED It! I'm not new to pole and I'm a dancer/performer already. The vibe I got at this taster was great! Friendly, fun and engaging women. Intelligent feminists with healthy attitudes. Clearly understand the human body and mind and have personality in abundance. They're really good at teaching pole too!!
