FAQs about Ambient Circus Arts
What’s involved with ambient aerial performance?
The aerialist typically dances and poses for about 10-15 minutes to whatever music is playing. They then take 5-10 minutes off before getting back in the air. This style of performance is completely improvised; the aerialist matches their movement style and rhythm to the song. It’s an organic, energizing performance that enhances the festive atmosphere.
Do ambient acts include spectacular drops and other impressive skills?
Possibly. For ambient sets, aerialists know that the audience isn’t constantly watching them. They’re more likely to do extended, enticing movements that everyone can absorb with a mere glance. However, they may do drops if the music serves them!
What kinds of aerial acts are possible with ambient performance?
Pretty much anything! Lyra is popular because it spins easily, creating an ongoing aesthetic. However, a talented aerialist can provide stunning visuals on any apparatus. Elle specializes in bar-based apparatuses: lyra (aerial hoop), aerial frame, and trapeze. She also performs on aerial silks (split fabric) and sling/hammock (looped fabric).
Is ambient aerial dance just a matter of sitting on an apparatus?
A skilled aerial artist ensures that they’re delivering an amazing performance no matter when someone looks at them. It’s more than posing and looking pretty: a truly remarkable ambiance performer is captivating at every moment. That means embracing every second as something special — an opportunity to impress your guests!
