Aerial silk dance
when the body finds its wings…
Aerial silk dance brings together strength and softness, courage and trust, technique and personal expression. Through climbing, playful wraps, aerial acrobatics and dance, each person gradually discovers a movement story of their own. It isn’t only about perfecting a trick: curiosity, sensation and finding your own balance between control and letting go matter just as much.
Regular classes · 2026/27
For children, teenagers and adults.
On the silks, we explore what happens when the body leaves the ground and, for a moment, finds its wings. Through aerial acrobatics, dance and creative movement, we build strength, flexibility, coordination and confidence, while giving each person space to develop their own way of moving.
Classes live somewhere between strength and softness, courage and caution, control and letting go. A space to rise higher, explore thoughtful twists and wraps, let go with confidence and surprise yourself.
We meet in the large gym at Waldorf School Ljubljana from October 2026 to May 2027.
We begin on 6 October 2026.
When silk becomes a stage
…the body rises from the ground and, for a moment, the space takes on another dimension.
Aerial movement weaves together with music, light, space and the atmosphere of the event. What emerges is more than a performance: a moving image of suspension, tension, breath and surprise.
We create aerial and dance performances for festivals, cultural events, openings, corporate events and other special gatherings.
Each performance can stand on its own or become part of the event’s wider story. We shape it around the space, theme and audience, so the silk doesn’t simply hang in the room — it dances and comes alive within it.
How did it begin?
The first aerial silks took flight in Ljubljana in 2003. For me, aerial silk united two of my greatest loves: dance and rock climbing. Soon Anže, Tina, Dana and I formed the circus collective Trupa Aduta. Together, we conjured up our first performance, Wings in Flight, among the plane trees of Ljubljana’s Zvezda Park, presenting it at the Ana Desetnica festival. We were thrilled by this new discipline, and curiosity led us into every imaginable twist and tangle. Over the following years came street performances, festivals, events and workshops in Slovenia and abroad. We have offered regular aerial silk classes since 2015, and somewhere along the way a new generation took up the baton.
