I'm just starting, got any tips?

[CaPandemonium]

@theappachiprincesse thats great! Um, just stay motivated and don't let yourself easily give up. There are some tricks you won't get the first time, and it might take lots of tries to get stronger or more confident about it, but it's all worth it. also, one thing i regret not doing from the start is getting more flexible. flexibility makes it so much easier, so really work on splits and back flexibility. (: good luck!

@CaPandemonium Thanks for getting back to me! I'm on a trampoline and power tumbling team, so the whole scarry and arm strength part might be a bit easier, lol. Thanks again!

[CaPandemonium]

@theappachiprincesse Oh that's good. And that's really cool too, sounds like you're all set. And no problemm. If you have anymore questions feel free to message me :D

I do silks too and this is my dream school. Good job. Hope you get in c:

@CaPandemonium your a very good aerialist especially for your age, But the schools high school program mostly takes people who have been in dance or in gymnastics and have a strong background. Usually aerial is not enough to make it into the school. if your really interested in going to the school I'd suggest doing some dance and gymnastics.

the high school students also don't have a specialty until they are in their last year. its mostly general training. so make sure your strong overall.

@CaPandemonium yeah I havent been doing silks specifically for that long but I've done dance and martial arts for a really long time which have helped with it. Do you do any other types of aerial/circus stuff? I love trapeze and Lyra and I hope to someday learn contortion.

[CaPandemonium]

@purpleparodyprincess Oh so you haven't been doing it too long. umm I really like the high school I'm at right now, so I might audition for my senior year or something, but for sure for college (:

[purpleparodyprincess]

I've done it since about the end of August so for a few months. I'd really like to go to the national circus school when I'm older. Are you going to audition again?

[CaPandemonium]

@purpleparodyprincess Thank you so much! And trust me, hip keys take a while to perfect, but you'll get them no problem if you keep working on it. How long have you done aerial?
