Student of the Month

My friend Susan! She talked Amy into having a morning aerial fitness class during the week so we could go while our pre-schoolers were in school! I fell in love with the aerial arts and just kept signing up for more classes.

Silks! At least so far! I'm hoping to add a few other apperati later in the year when my littlest one goes to kindergarten!

Being able to challenge my body and mind in a caring and supportive atmosphere. And having fun while working out in the air!

Besides taking care of my three children and ferrying them from activity to activity, I am also a singer. I have my own women's vocal trio, the Saint Louis Sirens: www.stlsirens.com

Tomorrow is another day, don't sweat it. Sometimes things just need a day or two to gel. That's what open aerial is for!

My favorite trick is what I call the "Kippy -trick"! (Amy calls it the Liz trick/ weird hip-key)
My least favorite trick, I guess, is shoo-fly, but even that has become less uncomfortable than it used to be.

Oh, I don't know how I'd choose, there are so many great people from Bumbershoot!

I'm not sure if you can put this on the website, but when I first started with aerial fitness, Amy was trying to get the whole class to do some (simple) trick without a spot. She said, "Don't worry, I'll talk you through it." One of the guys piped up and asked "Are you going to talk my ass over, too?" I think anyone who has struggled with straddle-ups can appreciate laughing about it!
