What picture imagines your brain when you hear the word “aerial arts”? The most common answer is someone on the long piece of fabric in some beautiful pose. But do you know that you can start your training in the aerial arts from 10 years old?
Teenagers most needed calisthenic exercises with no extra weights. Their bodies build a foundation for an adult’s body structure. Improving core strength develops torso muscles that stabilize, align, and move the trunk of the body.
Extra Benefits For Teens:
- Flipping into an upside-down straddle in an aerial silks knot or aerial sling builds strength and coordination and develops spatial awareness.
- Attention and Focus. Aerial poses require more steps than any other land exercise. Teens have to focus; otherwise, they fall out.
- Reduced academic problems. We are building neural pathways every time we practice a new skill. Thus, in each class, when we practice social-emotional learning, mindfulness, and aerial skills, we create networks in the brain!
