Student of the Month

The summer after I finished graduate school and before I was working full time I had a little to much time on my hands, my husband told me I needed to find a hobby. I found Bumbershoot on Groupon and after my first silks class was hooked.

I finally signed up for slings about six months ago. I would see Coty teaching class and really wanted to try it. Turns out I'm obsessed. I always though of aerial as a cool workout but something about slings make me want to just keep playing.

The environment is so welcoming! I have never been to another aerial gym but I hate feeling judged or scrutinized when I am exercising/ learning new things. The support is overwhelming, even from people you have never met.

I work as a nurse in a neonatal intensive care unit. When I am not at work or Bumbershoot I am trying to figure out this adulting thing. I recently started vegan cooking, because vegetables are good for you?

My mom's cookies straight out of the oven, sill hot and soft.

Is it over yet? The harder it is the better I feel after class. I've been known to stand in a hot shower for way too long after a tough class.

360? Dives scare me, but I love them, I am learning to love Salto. Superman... that back of the knee bounce gets old.

This is not a fair question! Ashley Skouby, she really pushes me to do better and be better. Plus we have a laugh or two along the way.

Well I have yet to perform... The first time I climbed up and down the silk twice to move up levels the entire gym cheered for me, not just my class. I did not think I could do it but I did, with a dramatic collapse when I got back down.
