Between the Lines explores the hidden dynamics shaping high-trust movement disciplines and embodied learning, with aerial arts as the laboratory.  Through conversations on fear, safety psychology, nervous systems, coaching, motor learning, identity, trust, and classroom culture, this podcast goes beyond tricks and performance to examine what actually happens inside the learning process - especially in complex, high-trust disciplines. Although rooted in aerial arts, these conversations speak to anyone interested in movement, coaching, leadership, and the journey of supporting humans in learning to move well. Hosted by aerial educator and creator Sara Kaiser.

    Teaching presence, micro-boundaries, and believing you were born to do this

    This episode is for the aerial teachers out there (or those who want to get started)... We'll explore how teacher presence influences felt safety, learning outcomes, retention, and the teacher's own experience.  We talk about co-regulation, confidence signaling, boundaries, and what it takes to truly let go into joyful, natural teaching.  Because yes, you were born to do this.  HOLDING THE ROOM MASTERCLASS WITH CHANDLER PRICE: www.wakefulascent.com/holding-the-room-masterclass Submit an idea or guest pitch FREE TRAINING Hidden Gaps of Aerial Teaching BLOOM Aerial Teacher Training Aerial Silks Online Tutorial Library Strength Programs Cello Intro & Outro Music by Shaun Diaz

    Fright in Flight: The neuroscience of fear in aerial arts

    Why do we feel afraid in aerial? How do we work through it? When is it right to push or back down? How can instructors ethically support students? We'll talk about some simple neuroscience behind fear, fear extinction, and concrete ways to work with fear as an aerialist and as an instructor. Plus, the time a tidal wave hit me while I was on silks dangling from a highline over a treacherous ocean.

    The hidden layers of safety shaping every aerial class

    Physical safety is the first conversation we have in aerial. But what comes next? In this episode we explore how psychological, social, and emotional safety affect an aerialist's ability to learn and how these layers shape the learning environment. We talk about how to establish these layers of safety, why it can be complex and why it's so worth it.  Submit an idea or guest pitch FREE TRAINING Hidden Gaps of Aerial Teaching BLOOM Aerial Teacher Training Aerial Silks Online Tutorial Library Strength Programs Cello Intro & Outro Music by Shaun Diaz

    Aerial Isn't for People Like Me - belonging and identity in aerial arts

    The first time I ever saw aerial, I was certain it was not something for someone like me. In this episode, we explore the common underlying belief that “aerial isn’t for people like me,” and why it's so powerful to break through that. I share a personal story and an unexpected realization 18 years after the first time I saw aerial for the very first time. This conversation also touches on what it means for teaching: how our approach, presence, and small choices can shape whether someone feels like they belong from the very beginning. There is a very cool surprise ending to this story (and no, the surprise is not that I decided to do aerial after all!)
