Straps Fundamentals Masterclass

In this live virtual class, we’ll cover straps fundamentals in a way that feels clear and supportive with Aerial Physique straps instructor and physical therapist Kelton Retherford​.


Straps are not a beginner apparatus. This class is best if you have a strong inversions and some experience with Skin the Cat and Meathooks. We’ll focus on refining your technique, improving efficiency and building more consistency.


Straps can feel intense on the body, and it’s easy to push into positions before you’re truly ready. Kelton’s physical therapy background will help you build the right foundations so you can train with more confidence!


What we’ll cover:

  • Straps set-up basics, including what hardware is needed and where we get our straps

  • A warm-up plus foundations to help straps feel more stable and supported

  • How to wrap your wrists

  • Progressions for Skin the Cat

  • How to begin approaching Meathooks with more confidence and control

Don’t have access to straps yet? No problem, many of the drills and shapes can be practiced on silks, so you can still follow along and start building the right patterns.
