Ball is a fun and versatile skill on aerial silks. There are many ways to get into Ball and many ways to use it, and it’s something that we teach to our experienced aerial silk students so they can have more options for choreography. This aerial silks teaching tutorial video covers the progressions we use when we teach Ball to our students, including a basic entry and exit from the ground and an entry from Opposite Side Knee Hook in the air. In this video tutorial we also cover details about the different grip options to consider and how to keep the wrist strong in the skill.
