Aerial Silk, Scarf, Ribbon And Tie Routines


by Sherry Gross


Acrobats and dancers alike use ribbons, scarves, ties and trapezes in a variety of circus and performance art routines. Depending on region, the movement known as often as aerial silk can include use of different equipment which resembles flight. Colorful ribbons, ties and other fabrics are used as if each were a trapeze.

Performers entertain audiences with acrobatic and artistic movements in concert with these hanging fabrics. Each artist also uses these hangings as a basis for different movements. These movements may include basic swinging, or more advanced movements like flips, jumps, spirals twists and turns.

As an added layer of protection from slippage, performers often use dry spray powder or resin to increase hold between performer and equipment. Equipment can refer to ribbons, silk, ties or other objects on, or from where one flies through air. While most artists use gloves, it is important to assure that there is a strong grip between glove and equipment either with or without the use of spray powder or resin.

Since performers must often climb up to the top of equipment, fabric or other items, it is recommended that anyone performing aerial routines acquire liability insurance. Actually, many production studios and performance venues require anyone performing an art considered "dangerous, " carry at least the minimum coverage available.

For those simply wanting to dance or play with aerial scarves and other equipment, creating a home sky gym is one way to go. Each gym has different hooks on walls and ceilings from which different flying equipment can be installed. It is important to assure the ceiling and walls have the strength to hold the equipment and any individuals who plan on using same.

When a performer feels free to explore any and all movements as part of the development process, the freedom can often inspire artists to create more interesting arrangements. Whether acrobat, choreographer, dancer, or just someone wanting to have an incredible amount of fun, dreams about flying through the air have always been popular. As swinging has always been one of the closest feelings to flight, it is no doubt individuals whom enjoy the feeling will also enjoy this type of equipment and routines.

It is imperative to know, understand and use any guidelines with regards to height and weight on various flight equipment when used in the home. This is especially true when allowing others to use a home gym whether having solely fabric oriented or advanced equipment. If not, were an accident to occur, the homeowner could face court costs and legal issues.

Most movement enthusiasts are going to love aerial movement. As fabric can be hung at many different levels, it is also an art form that can be used to help individuals overcome fear of flight and height. This is because if the individual can sit low to the ground and swing back and forth gently, then slowly kick out and go higher a bit at a time, it is believed possible to overcome both phobias.
