Take your next birthday, bachelorette, girls’ night out, or corporate event to new heights with an aerial silks party. What are aerial silks? If you’ve seen circus-style performances like Cirque du Soleil® with aerialists who use fabrics to climb, wrap, suspend, drop and swing through the air, you’ve enjoyed the art form of aerial silks. Aerial silks performances are stunning to watch. But the best part is, anyone can learn to do it — making it a perfect party activity.
History of Aerial Silks
Before you learn the skill of aerial silks, here’s a bit about its history. Aerial silks are a relatively new art form that came about in the 1990s. However, their popularity as a hobby and for fitness has increased dramatically in the last decade. Using aerial silks, one or more aerialists perform acrobatics while hanging from a fabric which may be in two pieces or one piece folded into a loop. Aerialists typically rely on their own strength, training, and skills instead of accompanying safety lines, but the appropriate hanging of aerial silks, known as rigging, is crucial for safety.
