Our classes provide individuals the opportunity to improve their strength, flexibility, coordination and confidence in a fun and supportive way.

We also offer FREE fitness classes per week which complement the sport and allow our members to become well-rounded athletes and dancers.
Our Classes:

- Workshops including SILKS, TRAPEZE, Balances and Stands, etc...
We support and encourage each of our members to improve through their lessons mastering spins, holds, technique and the control necessary within the sport, regardless of gender, size and shape. We are passionate about promoting positive body image, in both a mental and physical capacity. To do this, we have introduced an additional well-being instagram (@cuafwellbeing) this year for members to message and voice any questions, queries and concerns that they may not feel comfortable sharing with the committee, ran solely by our wellbeing officer democratically elected by our members!

Social and Events:
Members have the opportunity to showcase their skills throughout the year, competing in a variety of events such as WCPC, the Welsh Dragon Pole Competition, IUHAC (hoop), and Varsity. We are also involved with various showcases, as well as our own, and host regular fabulous photoshoots with professional aerial-based photographers, which is an supportive and inclusive atmosphere for all our members to get involved in. We aim to continue rasing and supporting chosen charities with our annual Christmas Caberet Raffle as well as Uni-wide Race for Life. This year we hope more of Cardiff University will be willing to get stuck into the Muddy 5K!
We hold regular socials, with various activities and themes for all members to participate in! We host both alcoholic and non-alcoholic socials to accomodate all of our members, such as movie nights, study socials, and group park runs! Many members have chosen to become key to the running of our society either through a committee role or undertaking training and becoming an instructor.
