✨my submission for @aerialstarorg — specialty apparatus level 4✨

I’m really proud of what I created here. Big shoutouts to @eddiedanger for being an amazing coach, @candycantu_ for encouraging me to compete, @aerial.candy for the supportive community and space to record, and everyone in my circus family that I’ve met along the way 🤩💖

The work is always worth it 💪🏻

VD: video shows me seated in a split stretch on the gymnastics floor before cutting to me doing a standing stretch while balancing on a half ball and finally doing the same stretch upside down in the aerial hoop. The captions read “when you work hard at even the little things, this becomes this, and it makes the big things look easy”

🎉Level 5, Baby! 🎉

Another fantastic year complete! This is probably the most fully-realized version of what I spent the winter/spring working on - a progress report of aerial straps basics, but applied to chains. Provided that I had no formal training in any of this, this was a way to ensure the mastery of balance, strength, and mobility, the synthesis of both worlds that I’ve been straddling as a coach/aerialist (chains/straps, wrists and contortion loops).

This was definitely “never-thought-it-was-possible” journey, which unfortunately suffered some edits due to feasibility of time, endurance, and the lengthy conditioning process, but the education and physical progress speaks for itself.

Always building back bigger! Always celebrating the day. Always appreciating the journey, taking the scenic route (if possible). Exercise for failure (find the flaw, identify the weakness, discover limitation by reaching beyond the possible: and proceed to chip away at that barrier. Boom! 👏🏽 More heroics!)

This is the act that I performed at @intlpoleconvention this year. The challenge procured a lot of meaning to me and my life throughout the training months. Lots of heart and athletics.

Acknowledgements:

Special thanks to @candycantu_ and @aerial.candy for providing the space for me to grow, heal, push myself to the limits, and share my love for mobility, strength training, and conditioning.

Another special thanks to @wearethestrike for releasing such a special song, right on time. “No Time To Waste (End of May)” - The Strike - fitting, as the performance was set for May 31st.

Thanks to @the.aerial.crystal and @aerialstarorg for another enriching journey! 6 years, going strong! I love it! 💪🏽

Lastly, as always, this routine is dedicated to @pole.pleazer - who is the real muscle behind these displays of strength, who kept me going when I was running on fumes and inspired all the passion that you see here.
