Silks & Sling
Aerial silk and sling fitness involve performing acrobatic movements on suspended fabric or a loop of fabric. Participants use the fabric to climb, wrap, and suspend themselves, executing spins, poses, and drops. These forms of aerial fitness build strength, flexibility, and coordination while providing a full-body workout. Aerial silk focuses on long lengths of fabric, while aerial sling utilizes a loop of fabric, offering different movement possibilities. Both are exhilarating ways to exercise while fostering creativity and self-confidence.

Founder of Meraki Wellness and Coaching with Amber Lansdale. My journey with aerial fitness began in 2018 and completely transformed my life both mentally and physically. Unlike traditional workouts, aerial fitness felt like fun and I instantly fell in love with the supportive community it offered.
In 2019, I embarked on a journey across the United States, practicing aerials in places like New Mexico, Hawaii, Wisconsin, and North Dakota. After settling in North Dakota, I noticed the limited availability of aerial fitness and decided to become a certified instructor. In 2023, I opened Meraki Wellness, inspired by the Greek word "Meraki," which means putting your entire soul into something with love and creativity.
In my coaching business, Coaching with Amber Lansdale, I incorporate coaching and aerial fitness to help my clients rediscover their confidence and cultivate self-love. For me, aerial fitness isn't just an alternative workout—it's an art. I'm passionate about sharing the joy and empowerment it brings.
