We created a custom Aerial Fit Online bookmark feature that makes organizing favorites and creating class and training plans easy and fun. This versatile feature is designed around how our aerial brains work and how we organize material for teaching and training. And because it’s easily customizable it can be used in many ways!
We use this Bookmark feature for all sorts of things, like collecting Favorites, making Class Plans and Training Plans, building Choreography, and so much more more. Class and Training Plans can even easily be copied and emailed for easier use offline.
Tutorials can be added to Collections directly from a tutorial. They can also be added from the Bookmark Manager screen. Additional rows like Header rows or Custom rows are added from the Bookmark Manager.
Each bookmark row shows the tutorial image and title which link directly to the tutorial. It also displays a custom note (if you created one) that is unique to that tutorial in that specific collection. You can find all of the actions in the little menu button. You can play the video right there without leaving the page, edit the bookmark including the note, and even add other content and move things around.
Header rows help keep longer collections organized and easier to read. They are optional and editable so you can use them how you see fit.
Custom Rows make the Bookmark feature so much more flexible and versatile. They can be used to add longer descriptions or to add links to other sites. Your Collections aren’t limited only to the content on our site.
Create dozens of class plans across multiple apparatuses. They can be for recurring series classes, drop-in classes, specialty workshops, or private lessons. You can organize the Plans with headers like Warm Up, Skill Review, New Material, Conditioning, and Cooldown. Each tutorial can be given a unique note to remind you of important details, like “Student Favorite.”, “Amy struggles with this.”, or “Don’t forget to look for external rotation in the supporting leg. It’s easy to forget this action.”
Create multiple Training Plans for yourself. Create a conditioning training plan that has all of the things you need to stay focused on to keep progressing. Save a Mood Boosting training plan that will wipe away the stress of a long day and leave you feeling revitalized. A good “Use It or Lose It” list is nice to have to remind you of the skills that need to be revisited from time to time to keep them looking and feeling awesome.
We always think the magic of choreography is in the transitions, and a great Choreography plan contains the skills you know you want to include to use as landmarks for your creativity. Then add in some Custom Rows, to keep track of the unique transitions between the skills and turn a list of skills into a working draft sequence.
This feature is entirely built and controlled by Aerial Fit Online. So send us feedback to let us know how you’re using it, and let us know if you have any other requests.
