    Beautiful choreography. I also love the costuming (reminds me of a fairy, mermaid, or some other mythical fantasy creature) and silks (reminds me of white sheets which, of course, brings to mind Sleeping Beauty!) choice.

    I’ve been doing aerial for a few years and this still is super impressive. I knew the first few moves, but after she spun in a hip-key I was lost. Most of the incredibly impressive stuff was the speed, or lack there of. Doing things like eggbeaters (when she wrapped her legs then did a middle split) are super difficult to do slowly, for me at least. Keeping fabric from falling off is near impossible for me. As the hip-key I’m still in awe of the slow calm execution. Stunning. The climb in the beginning was awe inspiring, i can barely do that with two legs, let alone just one. Very good performance

  • @EM-cg4iy
    @EM-cg4iy Před 2 lety +9

    You know what was really nice? I mean all of it was really nice. But not only was everything perfect and not only did it go with the music perfectly, but it's such a relief to see a choreography smoothly executed and not just constant setting up for drops. Drops are cool and all but one does tire of the drama sometimes, this was so easy on the eye.

    • @TeamGalaxyGang
      @TeamGalaxyGang Před 4 lety +7

      I'm still very self-conscience but I'm taking classes! Just go for it! You don't need to be super flexible, or have a certain body type to do it! (however the first class is really taxing if you have never done anything like it before) But you get used to it really quickly

    • @annelieseb7521
      @annelieseb7521 Před 3 lety +7

    Knee climb, dance wraps, splits, rotisserie to teardrop, hip key spin to thigh hitch to what I’m calling a fairy chair but don’t have the name for, then playing with leg position, back to hip key then secretary I believe. Even just the climb alone is utterly exhausting. This is so beautifully done.

    This was one of the first aerial silks videos I watched, and its still one of the few that I feel like could be qualified as a dance. Definitely not an expert here, but the other videos I've seen seem more like they are posing awkwardly with music that doesn't match in the background.

    to all those of you who are saying you want to do silks but can’t: silks are around $200 online, which is actually quite cheap for what they are. the rigging is the tricky park. i recommend purchasing a strong strap and definitely a rotating lock, and then rigging the silks to a strong tree!!!

    • @orion3665
      @orion3665 Před 5 lety +1

      jadedragonfly101 This. So true, i just got my own rig after years of doing aerial. Definitely do classes and then decide a) how much do u still like it and b) can u afford silks monetarily and space wise

    I've wanted to learn silks since I was little but there is nowhere nearby for me. My mom said when my cheerleading season ends i can try something new. When i told her i wanted to learn aerial silks she told me to pick something more practical. When i begged her she told me "just take a dance class like a normal girl"
