Don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what people are saying about the Detroit Flyhouse Circus School

“Wonderful teachers that love what they do and it shows through the instruction and lessons; they keep it safe, challenging and so much fun. I never did anything like this until about a year ago and now the things I can do excite me and amaze me. Thanks so much to Anthony and Veronica who teach the Acro ! + 2 class and to Matt that teaches the Aerial 1 that I’m able to do when I miss my Acro class.”

— Kathleen S.

“Flyhouse teachers are the best. They’re all so patient and help you to reach whatever aerial goals you have. Before going to the Flyhouse I wasn’t really active or fit. When I first try a new move, I can sometimes get defeated when I don’t get it right but all the instructors are so encouraging and take the time to walk you through the steps. I’ve brought friends and family to the Flyhouse and everyone who has come by has really enjoyed their experience! Aerial (or Acro) is a great way to change up your workout, try something new, the a risk and most importantly HAVE FUN.

— Brandi K.

“I’ve done a couple series at the Flyhouse, and I’ve been continuously supported and welcomed. I’m always challenged in a super fun way, and the teachers are all really helpful. Micha has also been really accommodating to me on many occasions, which was very appreciated. I’ll definitely be a regular student!”

— Christie S.

“Filled with good vibes. Never fail to have a blast! Teachers work with any skill level, are great spotters, friendly and non-judgmental.

— Micaela A.

“I am taking private lessons with my friend and we’ve had some awesome teachers!!! Highly recommend any classes they teach because everyone is super knowledgeable and very professional!!”

— Melissa I.

“Amazing birthday party experience! All of the children were engaged the entire time. Safe, fun, incredible!!!”

— Sarah P.

“I had my first lesson here on Christmas morning and it was fun and comfortable. I wasn’t sure what to expect but they made sure that we were walked through everything and I felt very encouraged. I can’t wait for the next class!”

— Sara S.

“I found the Flyhouse by chance (I’m visiting from CT), and had the good fortune to be able to take a drop-in class. All the instructors that I met were wonderful, kind, and supportive people. I appreciate the way they challenged both their regular students and me to try new things while still making sure we were comfortable and safe. Thank you to everyone I met yesterday, and to Micha for finding a spot for me to come play!”

— Mora S.

“What an amazing place! As a parent I am impressed with how much my daughter has learned in the short amount of time she has attended classes here. She absolutely loves going to class and it is worth the 3 hour roundtrip drive twice a week for us.”

— Willow F.

“Did a private lesson for kids to try it. They loved it. Shawn was terrific with them. Wish they had a place closer to Novi.”

— Cheryl P.

“The staff is extremely supportive! I was a bit nervous due to the lack of upper body strength…but with the encouragement from our instructors, I was able to do everything included in my session. Amazing experience!”

— Amy M.

“I booked a private party here for my birthday and had an amazing time. Mark and Cortney were the instructors and they were both so nice and fun! I had a great experience.”

— Cierra M.

“Love love love… Everyone there is so welcoming and kind, accommodating to your personal abilities and needs. They make a terribly uncoordinated person like myself feel graceful, strong, and beautiful! Aerial acrobatics has been the single most challenging physical activity I’ve ever done, and I worked so hard to achieve small victories in the classes I took. They were able to work with my limitations, and still push me to accomplish more than I ever thought. Thank you Micha and everyone else for believing in me! I wish I still lived in Detroit so I could take more classes. XOXO”

— Resa P.

“I mean, wow. I just became a teacher at the Flyhouse 3 months ago. Before that, I was a student and have always been impressed with the high energy and fun atmosphere at the Flyhouse. The teachers and students are all amazing. The support I’ve received from the veteran teachers and Micha has made me feel at home and competent. Teaching has been a pleasure. Seems like everyone who comes into the Flyhouse leaves with a smile on their face (helps that we’re always reminding people to smile and point their toes). The best part for me is the opportunity to fly and express myself in beauty and strength. Then also to make that possible for others. Thank you so much for these realities.”

“I have been taking classes at the Detroit Flyhouse for 2.5 years. This is a great place to not only improve your strength/flexibility but to improve self-confidence and challenge yourself to do things you never thought you could do. I have never been a ‘performer,’ but taking Lyra Choreography classes has given me the confidence to perform in two student/teacher showcases, and now I absolutely love it! The Flyhouse staff is always encouraging, positive, and helpful!”

— Valerie Z.

“I’m writing this as a senior teacher and co-owner of this wonderful circus school. Throughout my years here we have sold out all of our classes, which is pretty amazing. It’s not just because we have awesome teachers and an incredible curriculum, although that helps. It’s really because of our great students! They make it all possible. Why are our students so spectacular? Because they help create the supportive, fun, and non-competitive environment our studio is known for. At the Detroit Flyhouse we work hard to help every student get the kind of experience they want. Some people come for a fun workout, others to challenge themselves and bump up against their fears, while others come to become professional circus performers. No matter who people are here for, we are teachers do our best to help them get it.“

— Matt B.

“I highly recommend taking a series and private classes at the Flyhouse. The teachers are so knowledgeable, kind, and fun! It has such a great atmosphere. I’ve taken one series and a few private classes and have learned so much more than I thought was possible in a short amount of time. It was amazing to watch everyone in a series get better every class. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about these classes now. I can’t even listen to a song without thinking of the possible routines to put together for it. I’ve taken a strong liking to Shawn who is a teacher there. She always makes me feel great about my successes and my attempts, makes me laugh, and challenges me with fun moves! I feel that these classes have pushed me mentally as well. Such a strong love and appreciation for everything each member of this team does here!”

— Stephany B.

“I’ve been going to the Flyhouse regularly for several years now and it’s one of the best things I have ever decided to do for myself. I’ve tried other studios and this is by far the best around, worth the 40 mile drive it takes me. Incredibly supportive environment, and you’ll never feel stronger and more confident than you do after practicing aerial arts. Love love LOVE the Flyhouse, I strongly recommended trying this studio - whether you want to try something new, have fun, get exercise, or are just a daredevil, you will love it! Try it for yourself.”

— Angela D.

“Love this place…didn’t think it was possible to get this excited as an adult!!!”

— Rachael N.

“I loved trying aerial for the first time. I had no idea what to expect — it was a fun and challenging workout.”

— Sara D.

“Circus is family…………!”

— James P.

“Fun hula hoop workshop and amazing instructor! You should make this a regular class. I would for sure sign up for it.”

— Kathleen K.

“I look forward to each day I have class. This place is amazing, the teachers are amazing, and the students are also great people. The whole atmosphere is just very pleasant to be around. The teachers have the most patience I have ever seen in my entire life, they are encouraging and will work with you on whatever it is you want to work on. Even if you ask them to show you a move 6 or 10 times, they’ll do it without hesitation for you. I just can’t stress enough of how amazing the teachers are, and they make each class experience truly wonderful!!!”

— Krystina W.

“All I can say is, outstanding!!!! I am attending my second session now and while I’m challenged, the instructors make it possible for me to perform poses I would have never dreamed possible.”

— Katherine C.

“Growing in this new sport has increased our strength and endurance. Our family loves the private lessons that allow students to work on their own goals and listen to their own music. All of the instructors I’ve worked with are excellent and work well with families and children.”

— Vonda C.

“I LOVE this place! It’s the perfect mix of welcoming, friendly, and supportive environment and kick ass workout. I love making art with my body and working out every fiber of it at the same time. Shawn is my favorite! I’ve worked with her for two years, she coaches me through mental blocks, stays calm when I’m scared, and has a great sense of humor. You can do this no matter what your ability level and you will love it!”

— Kimberly L.

“Such a great time at our first lesson today! Learned so much and felt comfortable trying new things! We had various fitness levels in our group but all were able to be challenged and try the different skills.”

— Connie L.

My girls just finished kids camp — best camp they have ever been to! The instructors are so friendly and encouraging. They make everyone feel comfortable and really cater to each person’s abilities. I felt like my children were in great hands.”

— Malina D.

“So, I actually haven’t taken any classes here…yet. However, I do know about it from a few friends who have done this and LOVED it. This past weekend, I happened to park right across the street when my two little ones and I were going to the Eastern Market. I noticed that they were open when we were on our way back, and I asked my daughter, who is almost five, ‘Hey…You wanna see something super cool?’ She just watched in awe — her eyes were as big as dinner plates! The lady and gentleman that came over and talked to us were very nice and very helpful. Thank you all for indulging my little girl and entraining her for a few minutes until my son finally became too cranky and fussy. You were all she could talk about for the rest of the day.”

My daughter Nina loved Circus Camp so much she begged me to sign her up again. The teachers are great! Great experience!
