Excuse me while I spend the rest of the day looking up ALL her routines. This is the most beautiful routines and I can't believe it took me 7 years to find this. Her body just flows with the silks and is so beautifully toned. Amazing skills

[@ericamatulis]

This is beautiful, definitely one of my favorite silks routines. I just wish the camera wouldn't be so zoomed in

[@angelica8400]

the cameraman had one job

[@NPW.PhD.]

That's my trainer and friend! Excellent Sabrina!!!!!!

[@krystellegibson9614]

It's nice to see that even professionals struggle to split the silks sometimes 😂

[@whatamelons]

Oh wow! Sabrina is AMAZING. She has such control and is beautiful! 💐🧡😍👏🏾Thank you for a wonderfully moving performance.

I love the aerial work here. Thank you to the artists for your contribution and skills. NOW FOR THE VIDEOGRAPHER: WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! This is the worst video I've ever seen of any Ted Talks. Why would they not show the artists while she was climbing, and the zooming in too much on her where you can't see the shapes. What the freak Ted Talks? And the title? THERE ISN'T A TRAPEZE. GOOGLE IS 100% FREE AND JUST A TAB AWAY. (AND CIRCUS ISN'T YOGA) You can respect the art and artist by actually knowing what it is your producing. Love ya Sabrina, and I'll follow you on social media.

[@juniperchrisp7473]

Omfg she is amazing!!!! I started aerial dance about a year ago and that looks so difficult!!! She must be so strong!!!

[@eloisemarie5219]

Whoa!!! Expressive. Beautiful. Freedom captured.

[@lisawintler-cox1641]

I love her on the hoop so much. It's more dance-like than when she's on the silks. I wonder if it is harder to be expressive on the silks for some reason--so much posing .

[@sarahchanguion7502]

It is a lot harder to be expressive on the silks because you do so much wrapping ect Where as the Lyra doesn't require that so it's easier to look more "flowy" and expressive

[@psychobunny32]

beautiful performance. And she is so fit. I was watching this, and threw my soda down drain to start doing pushups. She is an inspiration for me to work out, and maybe take silk lessons.

[@cristinaalcala9630]

Love your work. It is breath taking, graceful and artistic.

[@nuriacrutchfield8870]

Hi im 14 and I was wondering what age is best to start?🥺 its so beautiful...... 👉🏽👈🏽

[@radicalreverance]

Now, start now...

[@rogerkreil3314]

I like it! 😀❤️🦶

[@GommyCreations]

She's awesome and sooo strong, the routine is beautiful, but I gotta say one thing.. why is it basically only splits on both the silks and the lyra? :( I would've LOVED to see more variety in the poses etc or maybe some drops, it's mostly just different ways of making the splits BUT I love the routine nonetheless and like I said she's awesome and gorgeous
