We’re here to clear up any confusion in case you hear us say:

engage your shoulders
flex your foot
try both sides
breathe!
flip your grip
let go
point your toes

I know we missed some big ones, but we couldn’t get into right, left, and other left…there just wasn’t enough time

It’s finally happeneddddd, we had our very first person hit 250 classes!

Congrats Britinee Zamenick for being such a committed aerialist and for all the support you give us 🖤

We asked the instructors about Britinee and this is what they said: she is always in awe of what others can do. And herself when she gets a thing. Such a great cheerleader!

We love a supportive queen 👑

Britinee got to be the first to sign our black silk, got a 250 sticker, and a $250 credit on her account!

Congrats again, we’re so proud of you!

The goal was to post this around the anniversary but September felt like a blink and you missed it month 😅 we got here eventually though!

I didn’t necessarily start out wanting to be a studio owner, I really just wanted to teach aerial. As a student, I started to notice just how much how different body types and backgrounds changed the experience for people. I wanted to help other people like me (who didn’t have the “standard” aerial body) get into the air. And I had so many ideas on how to make it more accessible!

But alas, the powers at be did not want me to teach. And the “well then I’m just going to open my own aerial studio” intrusive thought turned into me touring buildings, writing a business plan, researching rigging options, and the next thing I knew - Railroad was here!

And the train isn’t stopping any time soon, so keep an eye out as we continue to grow and evolve! Starting with something fun in December that some of the instructors and I have been talking about for literally a year. We’ll have some hints leading up to it though 😉

We’ve got another person that just hit 50 classes with us! Congrats tessa heller this is a huge accomplishment!

We asked the instructors about Tessa and this is what they said: Tessa is always a pleasure to have in class and gives it her all each time. She’s thoroughly bonded with our hot pink silk right now as it helped her be able to reach her long time goal of multiple aerial inverts!

Tessa got to sign the red silk, walked away with a sweet 50 classes sticker, and added a $50 credit to her account. Who’s hitting a milestone class next?

Heyyy Norfolk! This one’s been a long time coming since we’ve been offering lollipop classes for like 8 months now. Ready to move your body and have fun while getting your fitness hours in? Give lollipop a try!

Lollipop is a fun combo of hoop and pole, which means you get to do skills you practice on both! Or bring these skills over when you try a different apparatus!

Here’s what to expect in an Intro to Lollipop class”

🖤 a darling delilah (two different ways!)

🖤 a sassy seat + spin

🖤 a marvelous main in the moon

🖤 a magical mermaid

🖤 a sensational star/straddle

Intro to lollipop classes are every other Saturday at 10:15am with Luckey and every other Monday at 6:15pm with Krista Shanafelt

If you’re ready to get your body moving in a fun, creative way (instead of just counting squats), click the link in our bio or go to our website to secure your spot today!

PS our model Arika Michelle Brown teaches lollipop 2 every other Wednesday at 6:15pm, and Shadow teaches level 1 Sundays at 12pm when you’re ready to take the next step after intro

Or text/dm/email us when you’re ready to go upside down, we can definitely help with that!

We have a First Time Flyer pack where you can get 3 classes for the price of 2 and give a few different classes a try. Plus our studio works for every schedule because we have intro or beginner-friendly classes every day of the week.

Hope to help you get upside down soon 😉

It takes a lot of things to keep an aerial studio running:

the pole rags
the rosin
the lyra tape
and of course the team!

But we wouldn’t have it any other way 🖤

(some longer arms for filming reels would be nice too)

October is a busy month!We're closed for a weekend in the middle, but have no fear...we'll be out in the public instead!...
