Hip Key on aerial silks is a skill and it’s also an action. A Hip Key support is created when the aerial fabric is placed at the hip crease and then the body turns sideways into that support to lock it in. Hip Key is a fundamental support on aerial silks, and when we teach it to our aerial silks beginner students we use the knot to introduce many concepts and actions that will carry over into a more advanced Hip Key out of the knot later on.

✅Details make all the difference! See all the details in our library.

Our aerial silks teaching tutorial video for this important aerial silks fundamental focuses on the basic important actions and concepts of a Hip Key that we teach to our beginners in the fabric knot, and that includes several different variations and drills to help them set a really strong foundation for their Hip Key journey on silks.

Knee Pinch Flag is such an empowering skill on aerial sling. It looks like magic, but when the supports are set up carefully then it is actually very accessible for many bodies on aerial sling. Our aerial sling teaching tutorial video covers progressions and all the details that make Knee Pinch Flag work more easily. Our tutorial video also covers three different exits from the flag position that land the aerialist someplace different on sling each time.

The Forearm Press Basics is a teaching progression for any skill that uses forearm support. We sometimes call this version the Standing Forearm Press, and it focuses on building strength and tolerance. In some ways, it asks the question, “Can I support my weight in my forearms?” The answer often has more to do with tolerance than strength.

✅Details make all the difference! See all the details in our library.

We often use this skill hand in hand with the Forearm Press: Up, Over, and Roll, though not necessarily in the same class. The Up, Over, and Roll version helps students learn to use the forearms to move the body around the bar.

We developed both of these skills to introduce forearm support skills like Hip Circles in smaller, more accessible pieces. Pressing the forearms into the hoop is a lot to process. There is so much sensation that students often have a hard time absorbing any other cues or steps.

The Split Seatbelt Support Sequence with Climb and Descent is for aerial silks students who are interested in the Split Seatbelt support on aerial silks. This is already an uncommon support, and this creative and nerdy sequence climbs into it in an interesting way, it visits several unique and very fun dramatic skills in the support, and it descends to the ground with a striking and unusual descent between the two fabrics.

✅Details make all the difference! See all the details in our library.

The Split Seatbelt support is a really fun support to explore and having the fabrics split opens up many possibilities for unique movements and unique moments. When we teach this sequence in our aerial silks classes we first teach all of the skills in isolation by themselves, and full details for all the skills in the sequence can be found in our comprehensive aerial silks teaching tutorial library. Once aerial students have learned all the skills, then connecting them is fairly simple and with good instruction students should pick this sequence up quickly. Our aerial silks teaching tutorial video for this sequence covers any tricky moments that are in the sequence in detail.

Layanna is a classic aerial shape that’s a cross between a straddle and a back balance. This shape shows up in countless supports on the different aerial apparatuses, including aerial silks. In our aerial silks classes we introduce this shape using a fabric knot or a sling, and our aerial silks teaching tutorial video covers all the details that make this drill effective and enjoyable for a variety of bodies. This Layanna Basics skill can also be used as troubleshooting for any other skill that involves a Layanna support on aerial silks.

Supported Back Flag from Front Balance is one of those skills that is both a great bit of aerial hoop theory and performance worthy. Students love how dramatic it is and how little strength it requires. We love diving into the nuances of the movement pathway. This tutorial includes a few different entrances and exits, several pro-tips to make the roll easier, and a spotting technique.

This is one of those skills with many, many names. The most common from our history are Arm Breaker and Side Planche. In this variation, the Back Flag arm is not holding any body weight. All of the weight is in the hoop. In fact, in some of the demos you’ll see me simply release the arm to exit. So this could potentially be called a Fake Back Flag. That said, this is still a precarious position for the shoulder, and students must have mastered their Back Balances before attempting this skill. Losing control and balance can put a lot of strain on the shoulder.

This Split Seatbelt Sliding Splits is something Jordan discovered when she was playing with the Split Seatbelt support on aerial silks. She was exploring a transition that she usually does on aerial sling from a Seatbelt, and she was curious to see how it could work on silks. It led her to this really fun variation of splits that she explored further and broke down for her aerial silks students.

This skill does not necessarily feel the way that it looks, and it can be confusing to know how to maintain the supports as they change. Our aerial silks teaching tutorial video for the Split Seatbelt Sliding Splits covers all of the details that make this skill work, and includes progressions for aerial silk students to explore it safely from the ground before taking it up into the air.
