Aerial Straps Flag Technique Tip Tuesday @aerialphysique

💫 You’re in for a treat! This week’s tip is brought to you by the ahhhmmazing former Cirque du Soleil aerialist & acrobat @stustraps! The Flag is an elite bodyweight skill that can be performed in a static or spinning sequence. The full skill is definitely for the advanced level aerialist, however, Stuart offers some great floor bound & hanging conditioning exercises using his @aerialfitnessbodies straps to make it accessible for a variety of levels. FLAG BREAKDOWN & CUES: Set into ‘Fly Hang’ position - comfortable & engaged mid way height between a scapula elevation & depression. Place free arm by the ear for balance & control Pull & block down against strap, internally rotate the shoulder & rotate thumb towards the body (forearm pronation) Leg lift right foot to right hand rotating the hips through an inverted pike to the flag position (both sides) Drive top leg & free arm back & away from each other (lengthen throughout body - fingers to toes) -Maintain the hip rotation through core control & engagement -Straddle legs away from each other to create a lighter flag feeling -Drive free arm up & back to maintain upper body rotation Focus on short controlled breaths Exit = Pike hips back & rotate wrist (supinate) & shoulder (external rotation) to eccentrically (controlled) lower back down to fly hang position = Keep free arm by the head to distribute the weight & counter balance the body Repeat on opposite side MOVEMENT PATTERNS: Strap arm = Shoulder internal rotation, forearm pronation & scapular protraction Strap shoulder protracted Free arm = Internal rotation & drive away to rotate upper body Top leg = External rotation Flag head position options: 1.
