Amanda fell in love with aerial arts after taking a 6-week intro course on a whim in 2015 in Charlotte, North Carolina. From the moment she touched the fabric, she knew she was hooked. Since then, Amanda has practiced and performed on a variety of apparatuses – aerial silks, sling, static trapeze, and lyra – but her true love will always be split fabric silks. Amanda loves puzzles and theory, so you can expect to spend some time in class with her learning about wrap theory, inclusive pathways, and how to progress safely from the ground to the air. She’s completed Delbert Hall’s Rigging Academy and NECCA’s Intro to Teaching Aerials Instructor Training.
