Experience
Aerial Cradle


The aerial cradle looks like a door and is a perfect example of equal-opportunity strength and agility. This amazing athletic display features elements of traditional circus aerial cradle with a unique and special difference - the male and female artists take turns supporting one another 34 feet above the stage.

At first glance, the Aerial Cradle appears to be nothing more than an artistic wooden box that resembles a door strung from the ceiling via a tension wire. But what these artists do with this dorway is nothing short of amazing. Requiring keen balancing skill and amazing strength, this one man one woman team show us how sensual an aerial ballet can be. They'll amaze you with their stamina and earn every bit of their applause!
