From your first day of Cotillion to years of classical ballet, you’ve spent much of your life attempting to master physical grace and elegance. If you’re looking for a fast-paced, fitness-forward method to hone those skills, head to Helium Aerial Dance in Manhattan or Brooklyn for some lessons in silk: $29 gets you an Intro to Aerial Silks Class (up to $60 value).

Professional performer and founder Heather Hammond’s lessons have been buzzed about by Time Out New York, American Fitness Magazine, Daily Candy and more, for their body-sculpting, confidence-inspiring classes. Suit up in yoga wear for your lesson (held Wed 6:45pm in Manhattan and Tues/Thurs 5pm in Brooklyn), which begins with a brief cardio and stretching session, and then moves on to the apparatus. Check out their online video to see how you will position yourself within the silk to master suspension techniques that tone your arms, abs, and derrière, while simultaneously strengthening your core. Classes are limited to 3-6 students, so you’ll get plenty of personal attention to perfect your lifts, flips, and dips, always full of grace.
