Caring for your lyra is important to ensure a long lasting product. Ensure you take it down after every use and never leave out in the weather. Always check your lyra for cracks and hardware for seizing, rusting, or any damage before every use and disuse if any of your equipment causes concern. We recommend getting your lyra checked by a fabrication engineer every 6 months to ensure your product remains safe to use.
We always recommend to train only with a professional trainer as aerial sports can be dangerous! You’ll need to ensure you have at least 2m on all sides of you for clearance (more if possible) and always, always practice with a crash mat.
Delivery is by a combination of courier companies and will take anywhere from 3-8 business days (after processing) to arrive, depending on your location.
Lyras are usually in stock and we will send out within 24 hours. During busy times (Christmas, school holidays, public holidays, Easter) some stock may sell out – during these times please allow 3-10 business days for delivery to occur
Purchasing a lyra with no rigging is best if you already have your carabiners and swivel.
Basic rigging includes 2x steel carabiners and a swivel – this is enough for most setups.
Pro rigging includes two autolock carabiners, a maillon and a swivel. This is best used for those who need to put their lyra up and down often and easily and is a little quicker to assemble.
Our lyras come in sizes 85, 90, 95 and 100cm with a standard 2.5 tube. We can also custom order 3.2 tube lyras in the above sizes if you prefer a thicker lyra.
We will always firstly recommend training your grip – this can take a long time to avoid feeling ‘slippery’ and something many people don’t prioritize. However, occasionally aerialists will use rosin to rub onto their hands to aid grip.
Our Aerial fabric is a 40 denier nylon tricot with low-medium stretch, which we believe is a superior fabric with the best of all worlds. 40 denier tricot is a lightweight, yet super strong and secure fabric. Low-medium stretch refers to the overall stretch in the silks, which is around 8-10cm per metre.
The best way to understand stretch is that if you are using silks 1m high, you will stretch around 10cm bearing all your weight. If you rig a 6m high silk, you will stretch around 60cm bearing all your weight at the base of the fabric. The longer the silks, the more calculated overall stretch at the base, lessening with height. Here is a fabulous video from Aerial Dancing explaining the differences:

As each order is for different lengths and sizes, we need to cut each length of fabric and package from there. Please allow approximately 3-5 business days to cut and pack. We do our absolute best to ensure you’ll receive your silks ASAP.
Your silks should always be away from direct sunlight and never left outdoors. We recommend taking them down when not in use – firstly, so others don’t use them if they are not familiar with the sport, and secondly so you can ensure the fabric and hardware are checked before each use to ensure safety.
You should check your fabric in entirety before every use. If you see any nicks, holes, runs, or burns, discontinue use immediately, it’s not safe to use damaged silks and this needs to be replaced.
You should check your hardware before each use and ensure each piece works securely and there are no damages.
When using your silks, ensure jewellery is taken off and you arent wearing any items that could snag the fabric (zips, hair accessories, or anything with sharp edges)
Measure from the floor to your rigging point. Multiply this x2 and add 1-2 metres to allow excess tail and excess to rig your silks.
For example, if your rigging point is 4 metres high, you will need approximately 10 metres of fabric.
PLEASE NOTE our listings are for the total length of fabric – not the drop.

Our hammocks are most likely always pre-cut and in stock, and we strive to dispatch our order within 24 hours of receiving it. However, during busy seasons some colours can sell out fast in which case we re-stock asap, within 3-5 business days. Please allow this timeframe into consideration when ordering.
A double point is a stationary hammock and rigged via two points. It does not spin, and is perfect for yoga or conditioning.
A swivel point comes with extra hardware and is rigged via a single point. However, it can also be used as a double point. A swivel hammock is most commonly used for aerial dance, allowing the aerialist to spin.
Our hammocks come in a standard 5m length – however we are more than happy to customise the length of fabric for you if you prefer. Just send us an email at [email protected]
40 denier tricot is the fabric type our silks are made of. 40 denier refers to the thickness of fibers in the fabric. Overall, 40 denier tricot is a lightweight yet super strong fabric with low-medium stretch.
