An aerialist is a performer who executes acrobatic acts while suspended in the air, often using apparatuses like trapezes, silks, hoops, or ropes. They combine strength, flexibility, coordination, and artistry to perform vertical routines high above the ground, typically in circus acts or entertainment shows. Aerialists train extensively to develop the skills needed to climb, hang, swing, and perform complex maneuvers safely and gracefully, creating captivating visual displays for audiences.
