Showcase interest form Showcase director Julianna “Jules” Carroll started her aerial journey in 2014, when she saw someone perform aerial silks in a movie and thought that was the coolest thing she’d ever seen, so naturally she had to try it and immediately fell in love. In the years since, she’s had the opportunity to train aerial silks and rope with a variety of awesome people in Seattle, Los Angeles, Virginia, Hawaii, and Thailand. When she’s not in the air, she’s an engineer who loves to sew, go to comic con, play video games, and read romantasy novels while snuggling with her cats. READY TO START YOUR JOURNEY?

You may choose instead to take a private lesson and with instructor approval can proceed to Level 1/White Band.

Many skills have different names depending on where you learned them. What should I wear/bring to class? Bring a water bottle. We have a water fountain intended for refilling cups and bottles. For parkour, wear clothes and shoes that you’re comfortable jumping around in. No sandals/boots/crocs/etc.For aerials and gymnastics, students are barefoot. Please do not wear any jewelry, clothing with studs, belts, zippers, or anything that can get caught in the silks, or perfumes or lotions. The aerial fabric is very absorbent.
