Aerial arts in Ubud, Bali

Live and train in a real castle

An aerial training centre and co-living camp in the heart of Ubud. Eight-metre ceilings, an electric winch and professional coaches — for complete beginners and working circus artists alike.

The venue

Built for aerial work, not adapted for it

The castle sits in the quiet Peliatan area of Ubud, minutes from the town centre but far enough to train without interruption. The hall gives eight metres of clear height, so full-length silks, real drops and long sequences all fit.

  • Nine apparatus — silks, hoop, straps, hammock, net, sphere, rings, loops and rope.
  • Electric winch system for safe, progressive work on new elements.
  • Open air pavilion surrounded by the garden, with mats and conditioning space.
  • Four photo locations across the property.

Coaching team

Trained by working circus professionals

Every session is led by our own coaches. They compete, perform and choreograph — and they teach complete beginners every week.

Head coach

Technical expert

Combines competitive aerial technique with a medical background from Kharkiv National Medical University, so training stays anatomically sound as loads increase.

  • Multiple-time international medallist in aerial silks and hoop
  • Professional performer on Indonesia's Got Talent
  • Coaching competition acts since 2021, with students placing on the podium
  • Teaches silks, hoop, straps, hammock and net
