In order for the muscles to fully and safely lengthen as far as possible with as much strength as possible in a front to back split, it’s very important to connect with the back leg, hip, glute, and core to make sure they are working effectively. These Back Knee Tap Drills for aerialists are a great way to strengthen that control and deepen the range of motion at the same time. These drills can also help aerial students get rid of the microbend that can often appear in the back leg in a front to back split. Our aerial teaching tutorial video covers the lunge variation and the full splits variation, as well as common mistakes to avoid with both.
