Aerial silks are a type of performance art involving fabric \(usually\) hanging from a height that allows performers to climb, wrap, and suspend themselves in the air. Artists use strength, flexibility, and technique to execute graceful moves, drops, and spins while climbing or hanging on the silks. It combines elements of gymnastics, dance, and acrobatics, creating visually striking routines. Aerial silks require training to ensure safety and mastery of skills, making it both a captivating entertainment and a demanding physical discipline.
