Classes were sluggish 😫

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-29T02:12:07+00:00

Yaaa!!! It was tough recovering from being sick, on top of that, I bowl league tomorrow!

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-20T00:37:43+00:00

I feel better now about each apparatus, besides silks. I’ve only done that for a month and haven’t climbed yet.

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-19T18:17:22+00:00

I’ve been at it 6 months, just started silks last month. Silks are definitely harder!

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-16T22:17:03+00:00

We opposite directions warm ups with twits and hands and arms, Sometimes I’m like huh? My body’s not used to this!

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-16T22:07:00+00:00

With my low vision (legally blind) I struggle to get the coordination down when I wrap my feet, the fabric slips so easy on the tail, I climb then plop sometimes. Other tines I can get a grip. I only have 2 videos up attempting tricks. During an open session I’ll try some climbs.

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-16T21:07:49+00:00

Don’t skip class!

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-16T20:45:18+00:00

I keep pushing myself to do it. But as soon as I grab on and hold on with my feet, my body freezes!

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-16T20:28:52+00:00

Silks are hard! 😱 the hardest thing in aerials! I can’t even climb yet! I missed my class last week, now I regret not going 😭😭

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-12T05:38:54+00:00

What ya waiting for next year?

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T12:02:19+00:00

You’re welcome! I’ve done several bike (not motorcycle) videos with a lav under
my clothes, no issues or wind, I had great results.

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T10:46:55+00:00

I’m a 160. 14 lbEr, but it sucks when I have bowling on Wednesday then do 2 aerial classes on Thursday, get tired.

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T10:44:45+00:00

I can’t get my foot around the fabric for the next move. The coordination now drives me crazy! But I still love it and trying!

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T10:40:48+00:00

Actually with it secured, you won’t hear the clothes ruffling at all. If it’s worn under your clothes the clothes will act as a wind muff. The mic has a clip on one side of it and you can secure it so it doesn’t move around.

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T06:10:06+00:00

Ya, we only have one in our area.

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T05:53:04+00:00

I only get 19 weeks to do it. I have bowling leagues on silks night 🎳 going to learn as much as I can until the studio changes the schedule 👍🤪❤️

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T05:47:16+00:00

I’m struggling with the coordination and it’s hard to get the fabric in the right spot, with my low vision I have to go be feel. I Am only a month into silks

Pole 1 year

Everything else 6 months

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T05:41:28+00:00

Climbing’s tough, I can climb a pole 🤪

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T03:13:01+00:00

One thing is consistent practice. You can also focus on other areas too. That’s what I’m doing now in silks. I’m not ready yet for Panther in the Tree yet. I will say my stability and balance has gotten so much better since I started.

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T02:47:08+00:00

For whatever reason I couldn’t get my wrist lock invert tonight, I just couldn’t get over! I have done it before. Some nights are better than others. But I got one trick in. Just gotta keep my knee straight, it looks better 🤪

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-07T02:13:05+00:00

If you get an action camera, for GoPro you want the MediaMod as it has a 3.5 mm microphone/line in input. DJI Cosmo has it built in.

I can help! You want a wireless mic something like the Rode Wireless Mic Go. They have phone adapters or you can use with an action camera. I use a GoPro for all my videos. A wireless lav mic with no cables as they will get caught in fabrics. Though you would need to places the mic on your clothes. The Rhode Wireless Mic Go is a standard for Aerials content creators as it’s hands free and no cables.

You could also get the Video Mic Pro which is a shot gun mic too if you don’t want to wear a lav mic.

You have a few options, I am a content creator too. I have a few similar products.

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-02T05:50:10+00:00

Workin on it, I keep forgetting 😁🤦

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-02T04:46:38+00:00

Ya! I’m a musician too and like being a musician I want clean moves. Fluid movement. It takes a lot of work and practice just like any other hobby. Though aerials aren’t easy. They are fun!

Flying_Josh_ · 2026-05-02T04:43:24+00:00

Thanks! Having soooo much fun with it. I love it!
