A female acrobat suspends herself upside down from rafters by wrapping aerial silks around her waist and legs. Considered a performing art, acrobatics is also practiced as a sport, involving difficult feats of balance, agility and coordination. Traditionally, acrobatic skills were kept within families and passed from parents to children. However, most acrobats are now taught by larger scale education systems, as circuses are now made up of many more professionals than they used to be. Many schools specializing in acrobatics art are providing a constant resource of acrobatic artists.
