Golden Dragon Acrobats

One of our local universities hosted the Golden Dragon Acrobats Friday night. We asked around and were able to get enough people to get in on a group rate. The girls had a blast! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and had a great time. So glad Aunt Mel & Uncle Josh could come with us too. The girls are already asking to back next year!

The best way to describe the Golden Dragon Acrobats is AWESOME!! No cameras were allowed inside. These photos are from their website. There were a couple acts that we saw that aren't pictured. SO glad they didn't have the little girl acrobats on the website -- their act was almost grotesque -- they were sitting on their own heads they were bent over backwards so far!!

Think there were 10 people on this bike . . .

This guy was insane!! This is where Nana was wishing she had taken her blood pressure meds. Ha! He was so high he couldn't complete his moves because the ceiling was too low!!

The only thing I can say about this girl is -- 360 degree hips! Not to mention those are all individual cups with water in them!

All this balancing on a little ball!

Now for my favorite two acts . . .

I'm a sucker for tumbling and jumps, and these guys could do just that and well!

Guess I liked this act because I felt there was a SLIGHT chance I could do this (on a small scale). This is definitely something to try if you have a hyper child. Will definitely wear them out!
Of course all the adrenalin from the show spilled over into the parking lot as we left the auditorium. Everyone had to try a "bendy" move! I couldn't catch everyone doing something at the same time. Poor Aunt Mel was holding this pose forever!

And my favorite acrobat, Isaiah!
