Teacher Bio
My classes emphasize creativity and exploration. While learning circus technique and specific aerial moves, I will always find an opportunity for students to build sequences and explore their individual movement language. First and foremost, I want my classes to feel like a fun and supported community where you can challenge yourself safely!
