Whether you do silks, lyra, pole or trapeze, you don’t have to be in Cirque du Soleil to know #circushurts.
Stuff that looks awesome often feels awful (until you get used to it.)
It's a neck hang. What exactly were you expecting?
You hurt in places you didn't know a person could hurt.
Like the tops of your feet and the spaces between your toes.
New tricks don't come as quickly as you'd like.
As NYC-based aerial coach Laura Witwer says, "Time, Grasshopper, time."
When you finally nail them, the hardest moves don't get the most applause.
The splits are beautiful, but they're also pretty basic in the aerial world. You have to be SERIOUSLY strong to do this.
