When I was younger I always wanted to fly.Ive been trained in aerial silks for TWO YEARS now.all the muscles pulled and bruises and now I’m capable of much!
Ive been doing it for 5 months and i love it so much!! I just learnt my first double drop and im so proud of myself!! The only thing i dislike is the silk burns. I learn at a slower pace than most because A)- I started off not even being able to touch my toes (i am not flexible at all) B) i started off with 0 abdominal and 0 core strength (I am getting better and better tho I do my core strength exercises every day) and C) i have this tiny slightly problematic phobia of heights and anything that involves going up high. (which is an issue but I'm working on it lol)
TRY IT!! i started at the very late age of 14, and trust me its not easy and 70% of people quit before their second month of doing aerials (yes I have calculated. Ive seen so many people come and go in my short 5 months of doing this sport) but once you find a passion in the Silks, theres no turning back. Its like an addiction, you cant stop. You just want to do more and more classes!!
@@camo770 oh no worries! At my circus school they offer beginner classes for adults (i will not disclose the name of the school as it will reveal which city I live in and, well obviously I don't want people to know which city I live in.) so it's def possible! One of the new ones in the beginner aerials is nearly 30, and she's doing really well so far!
I can understand for a viewer that can be annoying, but as an aerialist you want that support. The audience did a very great job. I am an advanced aerialist btw.
really! as a performer I find it awkward if u are in a pose or have just done a big drop and no one claps it feels like everyone is ignoring me personally I think the crowd was being great cheering her on!!
