The Coach’s Coach

GET TO KNOW ME BEYOND CIRCUS

I was always a mover, just a mover who still hadn’t found the movement style I was searching for. The curiosity that turned me onto tennis, dance, skiing, and even working at the CIA, are the same things that drew me to circus, and it has kept me in this field for over a decade.

“WHEN I FOUND SILKS AND TRAPEZE IN MY EARLY 30'S, IT FELT LIKE COMING HOME.”

In 2016, I left a successful career as an intelligence analyst to become an online coach and mentor for aerialists, pole dancers, and other artist-athletes just like you. Today I am a premier skill acquisition specialist for circus artists and pole dancers, from Cirque du Soleil professionals trying to stay healthy on tour to committed enthusiasts trying to fit in training between careers and kids. My coaching philosophy is rooted in the latest multidisciplinary research and looks at you as a whole-ass human with unique mindset, technical, strength, mobility, and creativity challenges.
