22.01.2022 "If you’re just waiting until you can get back to the real work the part in the air you’re missing 50% of your training. The pre-hab, the mobility, the aerial-specific exercises, the stretching, it’s all as important as the time you spend zooming around on your apparatus."

20.01.2022 "Circus artists push the limits of our own human-ness into something wondrous, fantastical, and thrilling, providing the audience with a mental escape from the confines of daily life (and sometimes even physics). In a time when our big world feels so confined, we all need a little bit of that magic."
