actual literal GIP/GPOY

I made myself a new icon! Silks are, in fact, not my primary apparatus (trapeze) or even my secondary apparatus, but I keep throwing myself at it anyway and while my upper back flexibility is visibly now where near as good as my lower back in this pic, I still quite like this pose. (If my upper back flexibility were better, my foot would be less hilariously far from my head. WHATEVER, IT STILL LOOKS PRETTY.)

I love this handstand so much but *damn* is exiting it hard and scary. For some reason, I have a hard time bending my knee on the crocheted leg, without losing the crochet altogether. (Yes this is actually being done over a resi pit, always do stuff safely kids, etc. etc.) #trapeze #dancetrapeze #aerial #circus #circusarts
