Frieda has danced all her life, learning to teach and choreograph from many mentors. Through her dance journey, she learned that the body can accomplish amazing things through movement. In 2012, she was introduced to aerial silks via a theatrical production. Performing on the silks felt nothing like she has ever experienced. In 2015, Frieda started teaching silks to kids and in 2016, adults. Her aerial journey has brought more knowledge and awareness of her body than she has ever known. Learning and teaching silks is a seriously fun challenge. It is much more than tricks and feats of strength. It teaches you to try new things. Things that will take you out of your comfort zone. You might fail. You might get back up and try again and be stronger than you were. You will even explore your limits, be vulnerable and even feel silly at times. Frieda can't wait to guide her students through this remarkable exploration.

Elise started training aerial arts in 2021. Lyra is her absolute favorite apparatus but she can also be spotted in pole class from time to time. Outside of the studio, she is a full-time tattoo artist. In her free time, she can likely be found at home with her partner, three doggies, and 40+ house plants. Elise enjoys painting, decorating her home, and alarming her neighbors by eating fire in my backyard.
If she could give advice to any new student, it would be to believe in yourself, don't give up, and try not to compare yourself to others too much. When she started her aerial journey at Shine, she had no relative experience and had not had a physical routine in a decade or more. It was really difficult at first, and even more difficult not to get frustrated at her progress when she looked at other people. Elise could not believe that she would ever get a single straddle mount. But she believed in herself, kept coming back, and put in the work. Elise says that if she can do it, anyone can!

Sheila has been practicing pole consistently since 2021. Sheila started to build confidence and work through feelings that accompanies body dysmorphia. Through her journey she discovered a new passion for aerials and an appreciation for my body. She has gained a family and a safe space to learn to open up to others. For future and current students. Sheila says don’t count yourself out. You can do and be whatever you admire about others if you give yourself the chance.

Victoria has been practicing pole since March 2021 and immediately fell in love and started Aerial Hoop later that year. When she is not at the studio, she's in school to become a Web Developer or relax with a book or movie. Victoria wants you to know that you can start your journey exactly as you are now. Everyone starts from different backgrounds or, in my case, no physical background at all, and with practice, you will achieve things you’ve never imagined.

Wendy has been practicing aerials since 2020. She can be round mostly on a hoop but her aerial adventure has included a lot of hammock, pole, and floorplay as well.
When she is not at the studio she is a special fx and beauty makeup artist for film, haunted houses, and photography. She is also a hair stylist, sculptor and painter! She really loves to express her art through any avenue available!
Wendy's advice to her students is to take rest days, get gains, and love your journey! Love your strengths and your weaknesses because they are unique to you! And take progress videos so you can celebrate your wins!
