VertiFit Believes:
Every student can benefit from athletics. It improves coordination, flexibility, strength, and body awareness.
The primary goal is to provide students with life-skills through athletics.
Each student’s self-esteem and self-image is worth far more than a trophy.
Aerial Arts classes are designed to promote strength and flexibility while safely learning aerial tricks. Mental maturity is required to ensure a safe training experience; therefore, it is recommended that you are at least eight years of age.
" I teach with a focus on encouraging self-confidence and building self-esteem. I aim to make every student feel successful. Inspiring creativity, nurturing kindness, and compassion to all things are a part of my teachings of service and support for others."
