Marz Aerial Arts & Fitness is New Bern’s home for the aerial & circus arts and other unique fitness opportunities! Our mission is to foster a welcoming and supportive community for aerialists of all levels (even those who have never tried it before!) to learn and train safely. We are so proud of our community of local teachers, nurses, students from elementary school to university, realtors, parents, members of the military, engineers, doctors, and more!
At the very end of 2025, we started using Momence to facilitate online booking for our group classes, private lessons & parties, and other events! You can sign-up through our schedule (linked further below on our website) or by finding us on the Momence app.
We have an incredible team of dedicated aerialists, almost all with full-time jobs in addition to the instruction and training that they do at the studio. The studio is led by Marzanne, or Marz, who became the studio's owner in August 2021 after being part of the studio since 2017. The studio itself has been part of New Bern since 2014!
Most of our adult students attend classes using our Monthly Unlimited Membership ($150/month), which gives you access to all classes at or below your level at BOTH the Aerial Studio and Pole Studio, plus Standard Workshops (such as Aerial Yoga), and Open Gym. If you are only interested in taking classes at one Studio (Aerial or Pole), we have studio-specific monthly memberships for $125/month. We also offer Single-Apparatus Memberships (Pole, Silks, Lyra, Sling, or Trapeze) for $100/month.
If you just want to give our studio a try before committing to a membership, we have an Intro Offer for new students where you can try out any of our Intro (Level 1) classes and mixed-level workshops (like Aerial Yoga) in a week: the One-Week Pass ($45)!
If you are looking for more flexibility in your schedule, we also offer Drop-In packages: a 4-Class Pass ($100), a 5-Class Pass ($115), and a 10-Class Pass ($200).
A Single Drop-In is $30/Class for Adults and $25/Youth Class.
We have a separate Youth Program that meets before our weeknight adult classes for children ages 6+! Youth Memberships are $80/month, with $25 drop-in passes available.
Receive a 20% discount for combining any Memberships (including Youth Memberships) within a family!
In addition to our standard group classes, we also offer workshops, private lessons, and events (like birthday parties!): fill out the Contact Us form if you'd like to book a private lesson or event and we will get back to you!
We offer classes to people of all ages, experience levels, and fitness capabilities.
Membership options and pricing can be found in the About section.
