Teacher Mentorship

While teacher trainings are an essential starting point to any aerial coaching career, there will inevitably be questions and a need for support as you begin to teach regularly. Having one-on-one support tailored to your needs, moving at your pace, changing as your teaching practice evolves, can ground and solidify your aerial instructor self.

For more experienced teachers, maybe you’re teaching in a new environment; maybe you want to shake up the format or content of your classes; or maybe you’re looking to expand your toolbox for supporting students’ creative development, accessibility needs, or marginalized identities.

Flying Fox Aerial Mentorship can last one month or one year: enrollment is on a month-to-month basis and has three levels, allowing you to choose the involvement that fits into your life best.

For students who are interested in both, performer and teacher mentorships can be combined!
