ACTS for HIRE


Picture

Ground Act

Using physical theater, hand balancing, and foot juggling, this tender, silly act tells the story of how we use technology to connect with the people we love across physical distance.

Swinging Trapeze Act

Can we slow the pendulum of time?
This daring swinging trapeze act opens on a clockmaker who has lost control of time and follows the muse of time as she reminds us that time is a collection of perfect moments. One audience member called this act "a vision of nostalgia with a modern twist."

Coaching

Private Lessons

One on one coaching, guided by a supportive, professional circus artist. Develop your sense of play while learning clear progressions and solid technique. I am available for online and in person private lessons to help you reimagine what is possible.

Group Classes

I teach group circus classes in swinging trapeze, static trapeze, hand balancing, and flexibility for youth and adults. Currently I am coaching at The New England Center for Circus Arts in Brattleboro, Vermont. Inquire below to find out how you can join the fun!

Workshops

Small and large group workshops, including Consent Games for Circus, Acrobatic and Lyric Storytelling, and a variety of skill-based circus workshops for youth and adults, including Aerial, Hand balancing, Flexibility, Tumbling, Partner Acrobatics, and Juggling. I love to adapt circus for all bodies! All of these workshops strive to be consent-based and body neutral.
