Aerial Silks - Spinning Drop & Infinity Salto

[@rohanmisra7346]

Amazing, and leaves me hugely jealous as always. How do you manage so many rigorous and involved activities, along with a full time job? Your music, the orchestra, the silks : none of these feel like something that can be half assed and presumably require reasonable amounts of time and effort. That, along with a job and presumably time and effort for a personal life.

Thanks Rohan you're very kind! It's actually a problem - I'm trying to strike a little bit better of a work life balance. That's my main goal in 2020 is to take more time to relax and chill 😂

[@rojergrison3752]

It is so great to see you back training on the silks

[@InstrumentManiac]

Thanks Rojer!

[@ezkillionaire3276]

That looks so liberating... I bet you feel so calm up there, away from all the problems of the world... I envy you Luke. I truly do :) Watching you do this makes me want to work out and get back in shape.

[@InstrumentManiac]

It is very liberating! It's nice to find a more physical art form to counter act how motionless music can be. You totally should! Most cities have beginning aerial studios. That's how I lost my excess weight from Grad School actually 🤣🤣🤣

[@ezkillionaire3276]

@@InstrumentManiac i definitely will! :D

This is impressive. I'm not just ogling, I like visual sports (rhythmic gymnastics, figure skating, diving, synchronised swimming).

[@InstrumentManiac]

I wish I could do rhythmic... so impressive!

[@deaconthomas7930]

Dang man! I could never do this shirtless bc of the burns, true warrior right here💪🏻

[@sativumcoalho3920]

Oh my admiration for you is real!

[@InstrumentManiac]

bless!!

[@SwordsAndSamurais]

Inspiring!!! I just started learning silks by chance late last year, im not great to watch yet 😂 but feels like the one place i always wanna go

[@InstrumentManiac]

Ah congrats that's awesome! Hope you enjoy learning silks, they are such a fun artistic outlet 😄

[@intarc0giotto]

COME ON..... you just want to serve us thirst traps.... just want to make us want to play on your flute lol

[@InstrumentManiac]

🤣🤣🤣

[@rojergrison3752]

Well there is an Opera called the Magic Flute

[@intarc0giotto]

@@rojergrison3752 I could imagine it is at least an alto flute :P

[@GKMedoh]

How am I only finding out now that you used to do this? That's so freaking cool dude! How can you be so handsome, talented and passioned at the same time, what are your secrets?

[@Kyle3LB]

all I can say is wow

[@galebegnaud9447]

Gods, I DREAM of having a body like that, but exercising just hurts too much 😍😅

[@InstrumentManiac]

Haha being overweight before I can relate 😂 Just take it one step at a time!

[@d.lawrencemiller5755]

😮🤯

[@___DeVille___]

That. Was. Impressive. Quick questions: How do you manage not to get dizzy? If you do get dizzy, how do you still make it look easy and remember to do what to do next? And what does the people your gym think about your glorious performance? Hahaha if I was there I’d be cheering so loud theyd think I died lmao. Love the video!

[@InstrumentManiac]

Thank you Jamie!! Haha well I do get dizzy, but I cut out the stumbling around part at the end of the video. Adding the salto sequence helps me recover a bit before touching ground. And everyone kind of does their own thing! It's a gymnastics gym so they all do crazy flips that leave my jaw hanging on the floor - I'm definitely the n00b around there 🤣

[@___DeVille___]

InstrumentManiac that’s insane. I’m coming over to cheer you on and scream as loud as i can. And also, omg!!!! You should definitely play an instrument in your Gymnastic Gym!!!!!

[@drewfoust8390]

You look like you really enjoy this! What music do you imagine while you do this?

[@InstrumentManiac]

I really do! Haha sadly I don't get to imagine anything because the other people that use the space blast heavy metal when I'm filming these 😂

[@Goodriddance890]

If i try to silk dance these things might happen 1. My arms would snap off because im very heavy 2. I would fall and break my neck 3.my limbs would be torn off 4. I'll get stuck 5. I'll get tired and stay stuck there
