Aerial in Low Silk
A slow, supported aerial yoga class in English with Simona Fontanella at Yoga Nest Oerlikon.
Why it caught our eye
The low hammock and slower pace offer a distinct way to explore supported movement. A clear single-class price, named teacher and explicit suitability restrictions make it easier to decide whether the format fits.
What you can expect
A 60-minute class with Simona Fontanella, taught in English. The low hammock supports mindful movement, stretches, mobility work and a quiet finish. The practice suits people seeking a slower aerial session rather than an acrobatic workout. All levels are welcome within the health restrictions below. Choose an available Thursday class from the schedule; each is booked independently, with no commitment to a series. Yoga Nest Oerlikon meets at Kinexis, Wattstrasse 3, 8050 Zürich.
Good to know before you go
The single 60-minute aerial class costs CHF 35, including applicable taxes and mandatory charges. The CHF 75 welcome pack is a separate three-class introductory purchase for new clients; memberships and class passes are not the general single-class price. The booking link for each selected date leads to Eversports, where account sign-in is required to continue. No registration deadline is stated. The studio says this class is not suitable during pregnancy and is not recommended with an acute injury, recent surgery or a condition affecting balance, such as vertigo. Anyone with high blood pressure or an eye condition should check with the studio before attending. Classes can be cancelled up to 12 hours before the start. The source says late cancellations and no-shows are deducted from the current pass. This cancellation cutoff is not a booking deadline. The schedule uses Zürich local time and adjusts for seasonal clock changes.
What this is
Aerial in Low Silk uses a hammock about ten centimetres above the floor for gentle movement, supported stretching and longer-held shapes. Simona Fontanella leads this slower aerial practice, with scope to adjust the intensity. The format is restorative rather than dynamic or acrobatic. It is listed for all levels, subject to the studio’s health restrictions.
