Getting Started
Welcome to the Urban Vybe Tribe!
Check With Your Doctor
Reserve Your Space
In case of cancellation, please notify us at least 3 hours before the class is scheduled to allow us the opportunity to contact our wait-listed members, and so your class-pack won’t be charged for a no-show.
Arrive 10-15 Minutes Before Class
Be respectful of the teacher and other students by arriving early. This is the one time during the day when you can let go of the demands of everyday life and focus on your own self-care. Don’t shortchange yourself by rushing in and/or showing up late. Give yourself plenty of time to check-in, put your items in the cubbies, set up your mat make sure you have water and a towel, gather any props/equipment you need for the class, etc.
The same rule applies to leaving class early. Unless if you have an emergency, stay until the end of class so as not to disrupt others. In our yoga classes, savasana or relaxation at the end is the most important and beneficial part of the practice. If you are not staying for the entire savasana, we ask that you quietly leave before savasana so as not to disturb your fellow classmates.
Dress Appropriately
In all our yoga classes, we kindly ask that you remove your shoes and store them in the available cubbies. Yoga is practiced with bare feet. Storing shoes in the cubbies not only keeps the studios neat, it keeps the area free of obstacles.
Mind Your Scent
Let the Teacher Know if you Have any Injuries or Health Concerns
Leave Your Cell Phone and Electronic Devices Outside the Room
Make Sure you are Properly Hydrated
Drink plenty of water approximately 1-2 hrs before class. When your cells are hydrated, your bodily systems work at optimal levels. During or after attending any intense and/or heated class, you may feel tired, light-headed, or may experience headaches due to dehydration. We also recommend that you take an electrolyte supplement such as Nuun or Emergen-C before or after class to replenish the vital minerals/electrolytes that you need.
Eat Approximately 1.5 – 2 Hours Before Your Class
Commit to Yourself
Rest When Needed
Don’t Compare Yourself to Others
Spread Good Karma
Pick up your props and equipment and neatly put them away after class
Place your belongings in a cubby to allow for more space in the studios and to prevent others from tripping over your items
Always be willing to help others
Let’s be the light of love and compassion.

Sky Aerial Fitness FAQs
What is Aerial Yoga?
Who Can Come to Aerial Yoga?
Is There Anything I Should be Concerned About?
- Pregnancy: Many of the inversions can be uncomfortable and stressful to you and your baby.
- Glaucoma, recent eye surgery, or brain injury: Because inverted poses can increase pressure in the brain, inverted aerial yoga poses are not recommended.
- Low or high blood pressure, or any heart conditions: Sudden shifts in the intra-cellular pressure can adversely affect these conditions.
- Vertigo: Sudden changes in position may trigger dizziness.
- Recent Botox injections (within 48 hours): The reversed gravitational pull experienced during some aerial yoga poses may have an adverse effect on this procedure.
Not to fear! There are still some options for you to experience an aerial yoga class. We have restorative aerial yoga sessions which are a great alternative for many of these conditions. Please check our schedule for these specialty classes or contact us to schedule private sessions.
What Should I Bring?
What Should I Wear?
Jewelry: We ask that you leave your bling at home. Although all exercise equipment is expected to receive normal wear and tear, jewelry often snags the silk fabric causing it to unravel, reducing its strength and effectiveness, and requiring premature replacement.
Clothing: Please wear longer or capri-length, fitted, yoga pants, a short-sleeved shirt to reduce chaffing from skin/fabric contact, and socks/toe sox to keep our hammocks fresh and clean.
Cleanliness: We discourage the use of oils and lotions on your body when performing aerial yoga. This keeps the silks clean and fresh for the next participant.
*Socks/ToeSox are required for all aerial classes*
What Else Do I Need to Know?
Please arrive 15 minutes prior to class to complete the necessary paper work, and set up your hammock.
Please arrive clean and scent- free. Other participants may be allergic, or experience adverse reactions to strong odors and fragrances.
Hammocks may occasionally be shared or switched; please respect your fellow students.
How Do I Get Started?
Walk-ins are welcome on a first-come-first-serve basis, but due to the small number of hammocks and intimate class size, a spot cannot be guaranteed.
You can pre-register and reserve your spot on our website at urbanvybe.com, on your smart phone at MindBody Connect, or download our own free phone app Urban Vybe.
Cash or credit card payments are available for walk-ins. Multi-class passes and unlimited monthly Sky Aerial Yoga memberships are also available for purchase in person as well as online.

What Should I Wear?
A Bungee harness is used to support your body weight & to anchor you onto the bungee cord. The harness wraps around your hips and thighs & will put pressure in those areas as the harness supports your body weight. To help alleviate the pressure, we suggest that you wear thicker clothing around your waist & hips.

- Men – Wear thick shorts, athletic shorts, or cut-off sweat pants.
