Did you know that a Russian climb
is basically a hip key with your feet?

Never got that memo? Try it in your body—watch how it works.

Already knew that? When did it click for you—was it when you first learned those skills, or did the connection come later?

Isn’t it so rad when the veil lifts and you see how the wraps work and relate?

Whenever it happened for you, drop a little heart if that realization felt like magic. 💫

Biggest mistake people make when training pull-ups

Training for reps with bad form. It may sound simple, but funny enough there’s a lot of people out there who would rather have numbers than technique. All that’s going to get you is a whole lotta shoulder pain.

We love these “Step up Pull-ups” because you can really maintain proper form while still getting a burn.

Tips:
✅ Pull elbows into rib cage
✅ Keep space by the ears
✅ Pull straight up

What is happening here?

Sketch is a unique event where we have 3 different art-forms all responding to one another: drawing, aerial and music. Each of us is improvising at the same time.

Do ever feel alone in your art making?

Alone in creating a new act
Alone with your painting
Alone crafting by hand

Sure there is an element of going inside that’s important.
But creativity also craves connection.

Making does not ALWAYS have to be a lonely art

Creating alongside others sparks new energy and fresh ideas.

What if you thought differently about “making”?

What if you let yourself cross-collaborate, improvise, and simply play together?

See what magic happens when you set time aside to play with others, even better if there is no output required or result needed every single time.

What about you? Are there other art-forms beyond aerial that you do? Are there any that you love to watch or be a part of?

Tell us in the comments!

You don’t need to be a performer to be creative

You don’t need to be a performer to be creative

You don’t need goals of being in Cirque du soleil to be an artist

A big beautiful creative goal can look so many ways. That’s the joy of creativity…. There’s no one straight path.

Your goal could be to try something out of your comfort level, or to add in a little experimentation to your training regimen.

Or it could be an artistic project that’s been brewing in your imagination for years!

Whatever it is, I want to hear about it! Share your big, beautiful, creative goals here 👇
