Most of us know Kate Upton as a three-time SI Swimsuit Issue cover model, but is the 31-year-old also training for a side hustle in Cirque du Soleil?

The Michigan native shared a snippet of a recent aerial yoga session with her 6.7 million Instagram followers on Feb. 8, and Upton has some serious skills. In the reel, the mom of one contorted her body as she hung upside down from a yoga swing. She pointed her toes and stretched out her arms and demonstrated some serious core strength before gracefully dismounting and throwing her hands up in the air in victory.

Upton donned a cute blue bra top and leggings set for the occasion, and wore her blonde locks in a ponytail.

“Kate Du Soleil?” she quipped in her caption.

Plenty of fans and friends were just as impressed by Upton as we were, and chimed in to the comments section to voice their praise.

“AMAZING ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️,” makeup artist Kirin Bhatty cheered.

“YAY! Loving that blue set and beautiful smile on you,” someone else applauded. “You certainly do! 💙💙💙👏👏👏.”

“Katefabulous.👍,” an additional user added.

“Go Kate Go 🙌🙌,” another person encouraged the model.

“Omg this is amazing,” one fan noted.

“I feel like my back would snap in half trying to do that,” someone else admitted.

Upton has been part of the SI Swimsuit family since 2011, when her photo shoots in the Philippines and a bodypaint feature in a New York studio earned her Rookie of the Year honors.
