aerial arts
Aerial arts is a form of performance and exercise that involves executing acrobatic moves while suspended in the air, typically using equipment like silks, hoops (lyra), trapezes, or ropes. Practitioners, often called aerialists, combine strength, flexibility, and coordination to perform graceful, dynamic routines. This discipline enhances physical fitness, promotes artistic expression, and requires technical skill and training. Whether as a sport, performance art, or fitness activity, aerial arts create visually captivating displays of movement and agility, often seen in circuses, theaters, and fitness studios.
