Inverted Shapes including Tuck, Arrow, and Pike are important foundations that we teach our aerial silk students before we begin work on Straddle Ups. We teach these shapes at the end of our beginner level, once students can enter and exit an inverted tuck with control.
Finding different shapes while balancing inverted in the hands is an important building block for many skills on aerial silks. Arrow is all about finding a strong straight line and keeping the body tight, inverted pike is an important building block towards inverted straddles, and inverted tuck is a basic students will use frequently on aerial silks.
