2023: Anyone here?
Hi! I'm back on MFP after a long break because I'm trying to make sure I eat enough protein/calories for strength building. Any aerialists/acrobats/dancers on here want to be friends on MFP?
I need a song for a Halloween routine!
Hello, all (if anyone is still out there)! I will be doing my first solo silks performance this October and I need a song! My inspiration is creepy vintage dolls and circus acts (surprise). I love the feel of Midnight Syndicate, but I haven't found a song that really lends itself to a performance. I am partial to music box…
Anybody still active on here?

Hello and Welcome!
I don't know if there are many circus freaks on MFP, but I'm sure there are a few... I'm currently doing aerials at Aerialize in Sydney.

Aerial Set ups
Hello Circus peeps! I recently got myself an aerial hoop to use at home (Yay!!), and currently figuring out a way to rig it up so it's high enough, away from enough obstacles and safely secure. I put it up on a sturdy wooden support beam in my car port to test it out but it's too low to the ground. Trees are an option as I…
Your aerial progress
Hi, really happy to find this group! I've been taking lessons in aerial hoop and trapeze on and off for almost two years now, it's a bit sporadic due to moving and struggling to find teaching styles that suit me near my new home. I don't have a background in dance or gymnastics, but I 've been noticing some changes in my…
Veil poi
Hello all :) Does anyone here make his own veil poi? I could need some ideas on what to use as fabric and weight. So far I sewed some ball poi with rice as weight. That works well for playing in daylight. Now I'm interested in veil poi and thought maybe making my own would be best. Found this how-to-do videos:…
