I started training silks with this manual and it was super helpful.
I feel like I really got a good start and base with this book.
Now I take other classes and am really learning a lot.

I got the PDF version and it’s really nice to have it available any time I’m on my computer. I can casually check in and remember something from before. I use it as a helpful guide. It’s well written

My daughter took a circus class and really wanted to learn silks. So I got her a complete set, and this manual. Aerial Essentials was very helpful in getting me everything I needed and now my girl is up in the air and swinging all around doing amazing skills. I read this manual with her and we learn each skill together. It is easy to understand and we love each new chapter. We are ready to continue on with her skills now!

Absolutely Loving this book. I’m learning more and more every day and then I get to read up and study at night in bed too! It’s fantastic! I am really glad I got the paperback version. It is so nice to hold the book and read about all the new moves. It’s my new obsession! Sssshhhh don’t tell!

I love using this book! It explains not only the steps for skills, but why and how they work. This really helps me remember everything I learned in class, and gives some really interesting variations to play with!
