Behind the scenes: Into the sun with a smile

“I do aerial hoops and aerial silks. Aerial silks are two long pieces of fabric and I use the fabric to wrap, suspend, fall, swing, and spiral my body into and out of various positions. Holding the silk, I can also fly through the air, perform striking poses and figures.” Looks challenging – and yes, it can be. Kami-Lynne adds: “There are no safety belts or ropes – it all depends on your strength and your focus! But at Cirque du Soleil we have a lot of time for training and safety is the priority.”
