Aerial Arts Program FAQ

Junior Team

Coach Juliet and Coach Eli are delighted to work with the group going forward.
There are no planned schedule changes for the Junior Team.

Changes to Team 1A, 1b and Team 2

for Team 1B and Team 2

In addition to the schedule adjustment above. We are slightly restructuring our Competitive Aerial team due to the coach changes and reconfiguring class priorities.

Day One will focus on continued skill development and competition readiness.

Day Two (“Details Day”) will focus on act refinement, conditioning, and prehabilitation/rehabilitation. Both days are equally important and instructor-led, with lesson plans designed to support each athlete’s growth.

What does “Details” mean?

“Details Day” provides dedicated time to polish and strengthen every aspect of performance. While the structure allows for more individual choice, students will still receive direct instructor support. Activities may include:

  • Running and refining acts

  • Targeted conditioning

  • Prehab and rehab work

The goal is to give athletes space to refine details while still benefiting from professional guidance and feedback.

These changes go into effect the week of October 13

Trick and Tumble Showcase

We will be focusing on the competitive silks acts for the remainder of Katie’s time at Los Gatos Elite, so unfortunately, this means we need to pivot away from developing the large group act in the Trick or Tumble showcase for Teams 1b & 2.

Individual act performance selection will be determined in the coming weeks.

More information will follow.


NOTE: If any groups registered to perform in the Trick and Tumble Showcase are no longer participating due to our changes, we will refund their registration fee.

How will this affect competition season?

There are no planned changes to the competition season. Kelsey will be joining the teams for each competition and continue to shape and refine their individual performance pieces.

Forward Looking

We are continuing to search for a high level silks coach to join us for classes and teams.  We are looking forward to the competition season and continuing to work with your performer!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Kelsey through TeamSnap or via email.
