"I often think about how I wouldn’t have stuck with or found the joy of hoop if Suzy hadn’t been my first teacher. The best babe in the business!”
suzy's aerial hoop journey
I’m a professional aerialist, fire performer and dancer and have performed all over the world in film, music videos, theatre shows and special one-off events, such as the prince’s parade in Saudi Arabia.
I first started aerial back in 2013, where I learnt aerial hoop and silks basics as part of my professional dance training. I fell in love with it 3 years later when I was working on a dance contract in Spain and luckily for me, there was a top aerial school just a cycle ride away, so I spent the rest of my contract training there during the day and performing in the evenings.
When I came home, I had the bug. I bought an aerial hoop and taught myself everything I now know – not the fastest route but I have found so much value in discovering and figuring out the tricks and transitions for myself. It’s something I feel that makes me a good instructor – I know all the ways that trick can go wrong because I’ve done them all. Then spent hours figuring out the smoothest, prettiest or coolest pathway.
