LESSON 12: LOOP LOGIC
“Beyond the edge of the world there’s a space where emptiness and substance neatly overlap, where past and future form a continuous, endless loop. And, hovering about, there are signs no one has ever read, chords no one has ever heard.”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore
Get ready for some heavy thinking! We are diving into the concept of “loops” or “looping” in the aerial sling. Read through the PDF to begin to understand what exactly this concept is and how it might evolve your aerial practice, then watch the videos to see examples of “loops” in action!
VIDEO 1
Example of an infinite loop on sling. If you think about this as being linear or sequential, my movement essentially begins/ends in the same place. If you think about the loop as being cyclical, there really is no beginning or end.

What happens when you start to create loops within loops? Do new patterns appear? Do you begin to find new inventive ways to pattern loops?
