Here is Tess’ bio: Colorado native, Tess’ lifelong love for dance found a new outlet in 2012 when she climbed her first silk. While silks remain her first love, she has continued to explore the vertical plane, developing a passion for straps, rope, sling, and the occasional bar apparatus. Specializing in aerial theory and strength training, Tess integrates dance-based principles to help students bridge the gap between technique and artistry. Tess is passionate about sharing her knowledge with students of all levels and help them achieve their aerial dreams.

We are looking for a Friday front desk ambassador and someone to be an ongoing front desk substitute when coverage is needed. Email us at [email protected] to apply!!

New Handstand coach alert!!! Starting tomorrow, will be taking over Beginner Handstands on Saturday from 1-2 pm. Sign up today!

Bryan was born and raised in the foothills of Colorado. While social opportunities were limited, he learned to juggle from his mother, and shortly thereafter apprenticed with Jon Wee of The Passing Zone. This connection opened the door to a world of circus, and Bryan’s passion for juggling quickly expanded to handbalancing, acrobatics, and Chinese pole. While earning his degree for Theatre at CSU, he decided that he would forge a career in circus or die trying. It started with collecting handfuls of cash from street shows in Old Town Fort Collins to working for several local talent agencies, to touring with Cirque Dreams, to performing for many of Denver’s most iconic entertainment companies. Bryan is a founding member of Circus Foundry as well as Denver’s premier jousting company, Knights of the Tempest. 

TWO WORKSHOPS with

Intro to Bullwhips
Friday, 3/13 from 1-3 pm
Fee: $75/student
Learn to crack a whip! In this course, we’ll cover basic bullwhip anatomy and physics, as well as beginner skills such as basic forward and overhead throws. We’ll combine these skills with dance transitions like body wrapping to create a short combination. Note: This class carries the risk of getting popped with a whip! Clothing that covers as much of your skin as possible is recommended. If loud popping sounds make your nervous system nervous, some hearing protection is also recommended.

Aerial Chains: Spinning & Sequencing
Sunday, 3/15 from 7:15-9:15 pm
Fee: $100/student
Spinning on looped chains makes for gorgeous flowing shapes that weave seemingly effortlessly from one to the next, creating a mesmerizing, “how’d that get there?!” effect for viewers. For performers, this one’s a satisfying brain-teaser! Designed for aerialists with a well-developed practice; having chains experience is helpful, but not a requirement. We will be exploring types of spinning with weight centered and off-center, and how to use that spin to release one of the chains, then recapture it. We ’ll also examine how to provide greater proprioceptive support for generating spin and balancing in the chains with a fast spin.
Pre-Reqs: Students should be comfortable with multiple pull ups and possess good spin tolerance!
