Aerial Stilettos

Three years ago, Aerial Stilettos started quietly — a hall, some equipment, and a big vision and a hope that we could create something special…

A place people would want to come back to, a space that feels like belonging. This journey hasn’t been about shortcuts or pretending. It’s been built through effort, learning, and showing up — over and over — because this meant something to us.

And then came the people. 💜YOU💜

You’re the reason this place became what it is. Aerial Stilettos isn’t a studio that asks anyone to fit a mould. It’s built around people — your energy, your quirks, your presence, and the space we make for each other. A place where we don’t tone ourselves down, and we don’t expect you to either. We show up as we are — fully, loudly, unapologetically — and you meet us there.

From those early days in a hired hall to opening our own studio (YAY🙌🙌🙌) in Weedon Bec, the heart has stayed the same: movement that feels honest, a community that grows naturally, and a space that carries professionalism without losing personality.

We’ve moved together through aerial arts, heels, workshops, creative sessions, and three incredible shows — each one shaped by the people who poured their heart and soul into them.

Also along the way, Midnight Stilettos found its place too — a raw, expressive outlet for anyone wanting to explore movement with deeper spark and zero apologies 🔥 🔥 🔥

Three years in, the thing that matters most isn’t the equipment or the routines. It’s the people who walk through the door — nervous or confident, beginners or experienced — and realise they don’t have to shrink themselves here.

So here’s to three years of moving honestly, laughing loudly, embracing the magic, the energy, the edges, and taking up space — exactly as we are.

Thank you for walking this path with us, for believing in this vision back when it was only a spark, and for shaping it into what it is today.

We wouldn’t be able to do any of this without each and every one of you. We are endlessly grateful for your support.

Here’s to whatever comes next. 💜

Our Studio Is Officially Open 💜

We are beyond excited to share that Aerial Stilettos is now officially open in at The Royal Ordnance Depot Weedon Bec!

After months of planning, building, organising timetables, and dreaming big, opening day finally arrived — and the response from the local community has been absolutely incredible. The interest, messages, shares, and bookings we received have truly exceeded our expectations, and we cannot thank you enough for the support.

Opening Day Highlights

Our opening day was everything we hoped for and more. It was so special to finally welcome people into the studio, show you the space, meet new faces, and feel the excitement around aerial and dance in the local community.

We loved chatting with everyone who came along, answering questions, and seeing such enthusiasm for future classes. The support shown on the day — and in the days following — has been overwhelming, with several classes booking up very quickly. It truly confirmed that opening this studio was the right step.

Thank you to everyone who attended, shared our opening, recommended us to friends, or sent kind messages — you helped make our opening day unforgettable 💜

A Huge Thank You

As a small, independent studio, every booking, kind word, and recommendation means the world to us. You are helping us build not just a studio, but a welcoming, supportive community around aerial arts and dance.

The glitter dust has finally settled after our third show, and we’re still floating on cloud nine or maybe still hanging upside down from the hoop! 😉

What an unforgettable night it was. The stage shimmered, the lights burned bright, and the energy from the crowd was absolutely electric. From the first sensual spin to the final drop from the silks, the room was alive with passion, strength, and artistry.

The cheers, ovations and incredible feedback have left us speechless. Every round of applause and every message we’ve received since has reminded us just how much this show meant, not only to us, but to everyone who came to experience it.

This performance, our last one before taking a well-deserved little break, felt extra special. It was more than a show; it was a celebration of confidence, empowerment, and connection. Each dancer poured heart and soul into every move, whether on the pole, in the air, or on the floor, creating moments that were fierce, elegant, and utterly magnetic.

And behind all that glitter and spotlight magic is a team we couldn’t be prouder of. From the dancers who dared to fly to the behind the scenes crew who made it all come together. Every prop designed, every stage entry perfectly timed, every beat of the music leaving us breathless, it all created something truly unforgettable.

We’re beyond grateful for everyone who joined us on this journey, those who performed, those who supported, and those who cheered us on from the audience. 💜

Now, as we take a little break to breathe, stretch, and dream up what’s next, one thing is for sure: the stage hasn’t seen the last of our sparkle yet.

Until next time – keep dancing, keep fuelling the passions and keep shining your light. Because when passion meets art… the result is pure magic. ✨

The countdown is on! Just 24 days until our long awaited show, As Seen On The Silver Screen! 🎬💫 The excitement is buzzing louder than ever as we put the finishing touches on everything.

Rehearsals are still in full swing, making sure every last detail is buttoned up perfectly. The dedication, passion, and hard work from every single person involved are truly inspiring and it makes all the hours of preparation feel so rewarding. 💪

But beyond the rehearsals and fine-tuning, what makes this journey even more special is the time we’ve shared together as a group. Every moment spent preparing has brought us closer, stronger, and more powerful as a team.

✨ And here’s the best part, there are still a few tickets left! Don’t miss your chance to witness the powerful, show-stopping performances of these incredible girls. 💜💜💜

Grab your tickets now and be part of a night that will shine bright on stage for As Seen On The Silver Screen! 🌟

We just got back from our first trip abroad with Silky — and what an adventure it was! 🐾✨

Silky made some new friends along the way, strolled through the charming cobblestone streets of the old town (any guesses where we were?), and totally fell in love with nature — especially the mushrooms! 🍄 He even climbed all the way up to explore the ruins of a historic castle and take in the breathtaking views.
Silky was really fascinated by Poland and he totally fell for pierogi 🥟 🥟 😂😂

Now that we’re back from our holiday, we’re feeling refreshed and can’t wait to see you all in class! 💪💫

Recently AS embarked on a new challenge, this was going to be slight change to the normal performance and teaching side of AS.

Introducing Doug who looks after pretty much everything technical for AS, you will find me in the background working on thing like rigging, IT, lighting, sound and anything else that you can think of that is not done by Iwona.

Over the last year or so Doug has been learning and developing his skills in photography with the goal of being able to do our own inhouse photoshoots.

As you may expect getting the right results was a bit of a roller-coaster ride but you can see some of the better examples in the merchandise photos featuring Iwona as the patent model and also Silky.

And so after plenty of trials, rejected results and figuring things out and developing our own style, we were able to put together our first official photoshoot.

We decided the best way to advertise this was put out our example photos so our customers could decide for themselves if the results were desirable… and I’m glad to say feedback was positive.

The key in our style is body positivity and empowerment, we are proud of our girls and we are really pleased with the results, we don’t edit our models, only the backgrounds and colour profiles.

So let the final results speak for themselves and we look forward to more shoots to come.

It took a little longer than expected, but if you know us, you know we never do things by halves! We’re so excited to share the results of our first photoshoot, marking the beginning of a brand new adventure for Aerial Stilettos.

This experience was a huge learning curve, not just for Doug, who has thrown himself into photography with full dedication, exploring every angle and technique but also for me! I decided to take a course in photography posing to ensure we get the very best out of every shoot. After all, no one wants to be excited for a photoshoot only to feel lost when it comes to posing. Don’t worry—we’ve got you covered!

Now we’re looking ahead to our first ever chair dance photoshoot session on 4th of May, where we’ll put all this hard work into action! Whether you’re just starting your chair dance journey or a seasoned dancer wanting to celebrate your progress, this is your chance to have a snapshot that you can keep forever.

Head to our booking page to secure your spot—we can’t wait to see you there!

And this is just the beginning of our new adventure so watch this space for more!!!

Time flies when you’re having fun—and building incredible partnerships! It’s hard to believe that a whole year has passed since we first stepped into Jasmine’s Empowerment Pole Dance Studio in Corby. That was the day not only a professional collaboration began but also a truly special friendship was formed. 💜

From the very start, everything about this partnership felt natural and right. Rigging up Jasmine’s studio for aerial hoop and aerial silks workshops was the beginning of something magical. Once the first workshops kicked off, there was no turning back! The warm response and enthusiasm from Jasmine’s students made every session feel rewarding and worthwhile.

But this partnership has been about so much more than just workshops. It’s been about mutual support, shared creativity, and working together as small businesses in the same world of fitness and empowerment. Jasmine and her amazing student Jessica even joined us in last year’s Aerial Stiletto show, wowing everyone with a breathtaking silks-on-pole performance that left us all inspired!

Collaborations like this go beyond the surface—they’re about building a community and cheering each other on every step of the way. Having Jasmine and her studio as part of our journey has been an incredible privilege, and we’re so excited to see where this partnership takes us next.

Here’s to many more workshops, skill swaps, and unforgettable moments as we continue to grow together. Thank you, Jasmine, for being such a fantastic collaborator, friend, and supporter—we couldn’t ask for a better partner! 🙌

We can’t wait to see what the next year brings! Stay tuned for more amazing events and opportunities as we continue this wonderful collaboration. 💜

Every great story starts with a spark of inspiration, and ours began with the discovery of something small yet incredibly charming—little purple hoodies. These adorable hoodies immediately stole our hearts, and it was clear they were destined to become part of our aerial family. But something was missing. As lovely as they were, they felt a bit empty, a little incomplete.

And then she appeared.

The Story of Our Aerial Stilettos Mascot

Amongst the chaos of daily life and creativity, we stumbled upon the cutest, most irresistible cuddly toy—a little bundle of joy that seemed to scream, “Take me with you!” She was soft, sweet, and utterly perfect. Without a moment’s hesitation, she became our mascot, bringing warmth, fun, and personality to our team.

However, our cuddly companion was still missing something very important—a name! That’s when we decided it was time to involve the most creative, talented community we know: you! We launched a naming competition, inviting everyone to help us find the perfect name for our new mascot.

The response was absolutely brilliant, with so many fantastic suggestions coming through. But there could only be one winner, and the name that captured our hearts was Silky, perfectly capturing the spirit of our aerial family. A massive shoutout to Hayley for coming up with the winning name—and earning two weeks of free classes as her well-deserved prize!

Now, Silky is an official part of our Aerial Stiletto journey. You’ll see her joining us on trips, hanging out in classes, and adding an extra dose of fun and cuteness to everything we do. Silky has quickly become a symbol of our aerial family, reminding us of the joy, creativity, and connection that brings us all together.

Here’s to Silky and the adventures ahead! 💜

Thank you to everyone who helped bring her story to life. Keep an eye out for Silky at your next class or event—she’ll be there, cheering you on every step of the way!

Special thank you goes to Hayely Knight who won the competition on naming our mascot and won 2 free lessons of her choice and week with Silky to take her on the adventures!!!
