Meet Our Team

I love sharing my knowledge and experience of this incredible industry with my students. I was introduced to aerial arts when I was 19 years old without realising the immense impact it would have on my life. Over 20 years on I can't see a life for myself without aerial arts in it!

​

Silks was my first love and I specialise in teaching dynamic aerial silks and rope. I performed around the world on numerous apparatus for over 15 years. Since settling down and having a family my focus has been on sharing my passion with my students and growing the awesome Aerial Artistry® community, as I continue to further my knowledge of the wonderful world of aerial circus!

​

I started training at Aerial Artistry in 2014 and have always been inspired by the supportive community.
I particularly love teaching our beginner programs and introducing our newest students to the world of aerials and welcoming them into our community. I am also really excited so see our Explorers programs come to life and love the fun and energetic vibe it brings with it!

I spent my entire childhood as a competitive gymnast and rock climber, so aerials was a natural transition for me. It challenges me physically and creatively, and from it I've built some very special friendships. 

Outside of Aerials, I spend my ‘free time’ chasing and loving a very energetic toddler, and a labradoodle who thinks he is a cat.

The Aerial Artistry team are so welcoming and supportive, I find myself being constantly challenged in my coaching and my training, which I love!!I have been training at Aerial Artistry for 3 years now and coaching for almost 2 years. I started aerials as I wanted something new and exciting to try.

 

If you know me you will know that I am constantly learning new skills and creative talents to keep me busy. Some of my most recent additions include fire twirling and stilt walking. I enjoy teaching all age groups and my most loved apparatus personally is silks. My favourite class to teach at the moment is Level 2 Lyra.

​

My love for aerial arts began at the age of 11, igniting a passion that has only grown stronger over the years. From the moment I first took flight, I knew I was hooked!

​

Performing became a natural extension of my love for the art, and by the age of 15, I was showcasing my skills not only across Australia but also internationally. Teaching brings me immense joy, witnessing students' progress and smiles.

 

When not in the air you'll find me with my family, riding horses or camping , embracing the outdoors at every opportunity.

I started at Aerial Artistry five years ago as a complete beginner and I’ve been hooked ever since. I feel so lucky to be teaching at the studio and that my mentors have become my colleagues. I always try to instil in my students that with time, patience and consistency, they too can reach their aerial goals. Aerial Artistry is such a special place for people of all ages to learn in a safe and supportive environment. My favourite apparatus has been Silks from day one. I’ve continued to love being able to challenge and express myself through performing and creating routines.

Outside of Aerial Artistry, I am studying to become a Dietitian. I also enjoy sewing, reading, surfing and scuba diving!

I found my way to Aerial Artistry in 2016. It is perfect place for me to express myself creatively, while being active and having fun with a supportive team that have become amazing friends along the way. 

I am incredibly grateful to now be a part of the instructor team! It brings me so much joy, being able to share my knowledge with students and watch them grow, I love watching students challenge themselves and achieve things they never thought was possible while having fun! 

I continually enjoy exploring all apparatuses that although my true love is silks!

When I’m not at Aerial Artistry climbing high you will find me either studying or surfing our beautiful Gold Coast beaches.

​

I came into the world of aerials at Aerial Artistry 4 years ago.

I loved the environment immediately as it was a safe and joyful place to learn new skills.

As a musician and dancer this was a world that really helped me grow both creatively and artistically.

My preferred apparatus is Lyra (by far!) but I am also very passionate about Aerial Yoga and the therapeutic benefits this has both physically and mentally.  

It is an absolute honour to be part of the team here at Aerial Artistry. I am so passionate about working with everyone and supporting others on their own personal aerial journey. I love seeing people achieve their goals, but more than that I love seeing them discover what they didn't know they could achieve.
