TISSUE / SILKS

Silks are also known as aerial tissu or aerial fabric and are rigged to the ceiling.
In a silkperformence you will be captured by the soft silky fabric is waving through the space making it seem like the aerial dancer is floating in between earth and sky. This gives an elegant and mesmerizing image that will impress your audience.

VERTICAL DANCE

Did you ever see anyone walking up straight to a wall? Well sit back and enjoy a vertical wall dance performance inside or outside of a building and see it coming alive. The aerial dancer is hanging on a rope using climbing technique or abseiling. The rope is hardly visible which makes it fragile next to the powerful jumps and grounded movements. This combination shows the beauty of vertical wall dance. It shifts your reality, gives the illusion that man can fly and widens your perspective.

HARNASS

Do you want something vibrant and joyful? Or are you maybe looking for something more mysterious and intimate? With both ideas a harnass performance will suit your event perfectly.
Thumbling through space, going up and down almost touching your audience. The aerial dancer defines gravity by floating in the air.

DE LIEFDESREIS

The Floating Fairytales is a collaboration from Aerialette Natasja Bode (choreographer and aerial dance artist) and Wies Goedhart (opera singer). They bundled forces with other artists to create a multidisciplinaire performance: "The Love Journey" with 3 stories about love. It was was a evening filled program last 10th of October 2020 in Tobacco Theater Amsterdam.

AERIAL DANCE RIG

Our own customized portable freestanding aerial rig. It's a tripod of 6,5 meters high and 6,5 meters wide. Need to go higher? No problem we can extend it up to 8,5 meters! The rig will open a lot of opportunities. Now we can perform everywhere; outside, in the parc, on festivals, in the city you name it and we can come flying. Also inside if there is no rigging point or other hanging possibilities we can bring our aerial rig and perform. We can perform solo and duo acts using silks, hammock, hoop & net.
