  • My recent Aerial Silk piece from "One World, One Show",a benefit performance for YMCA youth programs. Most ambitious routine yet at 7 min. I must say I am very proud! Music: "Tango" by Chris Murphy chrismurphymusic.com/

    As a fifty year old who has just started on silks, I have found your performance breathtakingly beautiful, and inspirational. Thank you.

      Mini McCusker I guess you really are not too old to start something, I really want to start figure skating, but I am 18 and thought I was way to old, but maybe if you can do aerial silks at 50 I can do ice skating.Your comment just gave me a boost of confidence. And this performance was beautiful!

    • @lauradasi
      @lauradasi  Před 10 lety +12

      Thank you. In my opinion, aerial arts are another form of dancing, an extension of that discipline and training. It's so much fun to play with and defy gravity!

    I just started aerial silks a year ago and felt so clumsy, but this video motivates me to continue! It's not just figures in the air, as teh others have already said - it's a cocktail of figures, movements and flow that combine into a dance:) Bravo!

    WOW! I have been doing ballet for 12 years now (non-professional) and have started training in pole and silks. This is absolutely stunning! The strength that you have with this is incredible. The last drop was breathtaking; what was the name of it (I want to learn it :)? I saw your other video from 2015 and both dances have such grace and strength. I have watched a lot of silk performances on youtube and I like your's the best; your ballet background really shines through all of your transitions. A lot of other silk performers have choppy transitions when preparing for a drop or wrapping themselves in the silk for their next pose/move (I have no room to speak as I am the choppiest of them all as I am only a beginner in silks lol, just making an observation); having dance under your belt really shows through as there are no moments of choppiness or hesitation. Throughout the entire 7 minutes there are no awkward preparations and pauses while you're wrapping yourself in the silk; everything looks effortless!!

  • @VivaLaCroix
    @VivaLaCroix Před 8 lety +4

    I just came across this video after watching something else. This piece is very well choreographed to the music with excellent form throughout. Lots of beautiful leg lines evoke the feeling of tango. Nothing excessive or extraneous. I appreciate seeing quality over flashy moves that are poorly executed, as is the case so often these days.

    • @lauradasi
      @lauradasi  Před 8 lety +3

      +accordingtosam Thanks! The endurance is something you have to build. If you don't do this already, I would suggest that at the end of a class or training session put on a song and improvise on the silks. See if you can stay up there for the entire song then gradually increase your air time with longer songs. Really gives you a chance to figure out transitions, how to pace yourself and be creative.

  • @jessicam7137
    @jessicam7137 Před 7 lety

    After pole dancing for quite a while, I tried silks and I am now firmly under the impression that silks are more challenging than pole. I never thought I would say that because the strength, flexibility, and grace you need to be a pole dancer is what makes it such a challenge, but you don't have to manipulate the pole. Not only do you need to be graceful, strong, and flexible, but you also need to manipulate the object you are using for aerial dance. I think you need to be stronger in many ways because you can't rely on sticking to the object the way you can in pole. Sure, can wrap and lock your feet, hips, etc., but it seems like it took a LOT more upper body strength. I could be wrong; this is just my two cents.

    • @oszivlogs2560
      @oszivlogs2560 Před rokem

      I agree with everything you say, but I prefer pole dancing. On the one hand, it is easier to create a more energetic and dynamic dance choreography on it. Silks does not allow this. There are much more static movements on that aparatus, so the choice of music is narrowed down to slower, more melancholic music.

    Laura, loved this performance! You are amazing! This is a random questios, but where did you get your leotard for this performance? I'm looking for a black/red/lace leotard and really like the one you're wearing here.
