Let's investigate the reasons behind why the hollow body is so important, when it is most useful, and how it is not always needed, and when to look out for injurious movements.
Who: Most aerial teachers start teaching their beginning students how to hang with “engaged” shoulders and a hollow body in their very first class. What: A (correct) hollow body position is identified by a slightly flexed (flattened) lower back with the rib cage drawn down which is stabilized with all four of the abdominal muscles.
