Why do Aerial classes cost what they do?

Aerial classes incur a lot of additional safety expenses. At Sitka Cirque we take safety very seriously.  It is our number one priority.  To ensure safety, classes are limited to a maximum number of students per/teacher.  In addition, we spend thousands every year replacing aerial equipment, aerial insurance, rigging and safety inspections.  There is no cheap way to ensure safety.
