In today’s episode of “Matt About Town,” we’re trying out the whole acrobatics thing — courtesy of Cirque du Soleil — to master the art of hoop jumping!

It’s all part of spotlighting the latest iteration of Cirque du Soleil, a show called “Luzia,” which is currently running at the Tysons Galleria in Tysons, Virginia, through Oct. 18.

Inspired by the culture of Mexico, “Luzia” features some of Cirque’s most gravity-defying stunts yet, paired with incredible feats of strength, flexibility and a unique array of costumes and animatronic stage props.

No matter your age, there’s something in this show for everyone — especially if you’ve ever dreamed of flying through the air yourself!

Hear “Matt About Town” first every Tuesday and Thursday on 103.5 FM!
