Aerial Silks Cross Back Straddle Tutorial | UNIQUE AERIALISTS

Описание: Aerial Silks Cross Back Straddle Tutorial | UNIQUE AERIALISTS

Safety First: Use a qualified rigger to rig your aerial silks. Be fully warmed up before you attempt any exercises on the aerial silks. Place a crash mat underneath you and have a spotter to assist you.

Common mistakes:
Feet being uneven - your feet need to be completely equal height or your Cross Back Straddle will be very wonky!
Not able to pull your shoulders through the silks - keep your feet together. Push your hips forward to prevent the silks getting caught on your bum. Lean back as your bring your shoulders through. This does take quite a lot of strength, do some conditioning exercises to increase your strength before attempting this if you need to.
The silks getting stuck on your bum as you try to bring the cross up to your lower back - pull up with your arms to create some slack. Start to widen your legs then push your feet forward and your hips back at the same time, this might take some practise!
Can't flip over - this is really hard as you need to do a lot all at the same time. Follow all of the instructions, if you miss one thing eg pulling up, then you won't flip over.
Legs bending while your are inverting or coming down out of the move - it's so easy to bend your legs but once they start bending the silks will keep increasing the tension on them which will make it really hard to straighten them, engage your quads and focus on keeping them straight throughout the movement.
