Specialized Biomechanics: Understanding the unique musculoskeletal demands of aerial and acrobatic disciplines and using comparisons to elite sport to reframe how we think about circus movement.

Hypermobility and the Pelvic Floor: Hypermobility is a growing area of rapidly evolving science. We’ll learn what the science says now and how it relates to the pelvic floor.

Tendon Resilience and Loading: The high-impact landings, repetitive gripping, and end range demands of circus skills require more than just rest. Learn to translate the latest recovery research into practical loading protocols, moving beyond passive care to build the functional durability needed for training and performance.

Flexibility Science: Modern flexibility science has moved beyond basic protocols to target neural adaptation and tissue tolerance. Learn a roadmap based on the current research for clinicians and elite coaches to optimize range-of-motion gains for themselves and their athletes with high-mobility goals.

The Performance Edge: Evidence-based insights into nutrition and sports psychology tailored for the environment of the stage, for high performance, optimizing conditions to improve the body’s ability to build skills, and recovery.

The Artist’s Voice: Moving beyond the research, the symposium features veteran performers sharing lived experiences on recovery, their experience with healthcare, and the journey of returning to training after time away or an injury.
