Aerial straps

Home » Aerial straps

The Aerial Straps combine flexibility, strength, and technique. They consist of two separate cotton and polyamide straps hanging vertically. While the discipline may appear simple, it offers infinite possibilities for expression—allowing you to spin, pivot, swing, dance, and play using your hands, feet, body, and neck.

Quentin uses Aerial Straps and the physical constraints they impose on his body to express his feelings and emotions within a definitively infinite space: weightlessness.

NUMBER AERIAL STRAPS ACT

This Aerial Straps act was created during the second lockdown in December 2020. It emerged from a necessity to satisfy the need for creation—to create a hiatus during a time when the lives of artists were on hold.

WHY AERIAL STRAPS ?

The Aerial Straps were a natural choice for Quentin. Originally trained as a gymnast with a talent for power and momentum apparatus, he was drawn to this aerial specialty which requires nearly identical physical abilities. However, it was the freedom of expression offered by this circus discipline that truly drove him to make it his specialty.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT AERIAL STRAPS ACT WITH POINT OF SUSPENSION

Since early 2024, I have been collaborating with François Pelaprat, founder of the company " Point de Suspension" which specializes in custom equipment for the performing arts (harnesses, lifting systems, rigging, etc.). Following a chance meeting at the Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain, François Aerial Straps François shared his vision of creating 'Made in France' aerial straps. He was looking for a trusted partner to conduct long-term research and development to achieve optimal results. I accepted immediately. Together, we established a protocol for testing, trial-and-error, and feedback. After a year and a half of testing, we have achieved a high-quality, premium product. Comfort, safety, and aesthetics: it has it all. These straps are available in two versions: 'Bonbon' (thin strap, for small wrists) and 'Mammoth' (wide strap, for larger wrists, designed for heavy dynamic work).
