Love and Gravity, and stuff

flexagonI saw "Love and Gravity" by the Acrobatic Conundrum last night and am agreeing with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nevers -- good show! Mostly not super amazing circus... well, except for the calmest rope act I've ever seen, and the most interesting rope apparatus I've ever seen, and the biggest cyr wheel I've ever seen, and the happiest acro base I've ever seen. From whom I get to take a workshop today, so woohoo! I hope I get to stand on her. Ohhhh, and I also have a new but surely abiding girl-crush on Molly Graves, who was a visiting artist last night (here's a video of her. Those arms!). Also, a good "surprise" moment at the beginning. So actually, what am I holding out for? Great show.
I bet LSC's rope classes all fill up for next session, now, if they haven't already. I also got the deep pleasure of turning around to the guys behind me who'd never seen a Cyr wheel before, and saying "you know you can take classes for that like a mile from here, right?" and blowing their fucking minds. Satisfying.
I think I meant to post about some circus progress of my own, last week. It's minor stuff, like managing a couple of split-to-split helicopters in handstand last weekend, and kinda finding the support point for my knee on my elbow for working on air babies. (I will likely never have a one-arm handstand, but some say an air baby isn't much harder than a croc, and I sure have a croc... so hmm.)
