We warm up together and, in addition to playful elements, emphasis is placed on the clean execution of acrobatic basics. This is followed by exercises to build up strength and flexibility, and we practise simple acrobatic figures. On the aerial silk, we learn the correct and safe technique of climbing, as well as simple forms and drops. The focus is on the joy of movement.

Clothing: To prevent friction burns, we recommend tight-fitting, comfortable training clothing (bodysuit and leggings). In the winter months, we recommend long training clothes for before and after the course. Children with long hair should have a hair tie with them.

Eva Baggenstos

Eva Baggenstos from Zurich discovered her passion for aerial acrobatics in 2010. Since then, she has attended various intensive courses, circus festivals and workshops at home and abroad in order to continuously develop her skills.
She has appeared in various theater productions (e.g. Stone! Spectacle Baden; Deep Emotions Happiness, Bern) and street festivals (e.g. Gauklerfestival Adelboden, Badenfahrt 2017) and showed her performances at various other events (corporate events, parties, trade fairs).
Eva particularly enjoys passing on her knowledge and skills to others. She has been teaching beginners and advanced aerial hoops and aerial silks since 2012.
