        Hi everyone! Excited to be here and looking forward to training (virtually) with you all. Love seeing everyone’s photos!

        I thought it’d be fun to start a thread of intro’s so we can meet each other! I’ll start us off?

              Hi everyone! Excited to have a chance to train virtually with everyone. The pandemic hit right after I had my first child, so training has been a “no-go” for a while. This will be a great opportunity for safe coaching and helpful feedback!

                Hi everyone,
                I really enjoyed the Emerge workshop that Womack and Bowman did a few months ago, I love watching all you beautiful aerialists! I’m excited to train with you virtually.

                      Hi everyone. I was off the saddle since March lacking equipment and space, but I’ve now figured out both and am motivated to learn in a different way and meet people in this community along the way.

                              I am looking forward to training togather. My name is Dominika, but you can call me Niksa. I am based in Poland and we are forutnate to have opened most of the regular classes now (in principle). My main prop are silks, but I also do lyra (also in duo) and a little bit of static trapeze.

                              Stay safe

                                Hi y’all! This is such a fun opportunity. I’ve been training irregularly since March and I’m excited to have some kind of structure to feel like I’m still improving rather than just maintaining.

                                  Hello, lovely people! I am excited to be back in the air at long last with you all 🙂 I enjoyed the Emerge training from a few months ago, finally managed to get myself a rig after long last, and am excited to learn some things new things. I am curious to see what monthly challenges are planned for the winter months (kind of intrigued by what creativity I will need to continue flying with a rig during Michigan winter), and what new workouts/stretches there may be that may help me actually get some semblance of splits or straighter legs 😛

                                      My island doesn’t have an aerial studio (yet), and I’ve been without a mentor for several years now. So I’m always looking forward to and waiting for Brett and Rachel’s beautiful informative videos.
                                      And I’m stoked to be able to learn virtually with all of you. Mahalo Brett & Rachel!

                                        Hi everyone! 😀

                                        I’ve been on aerial hiatus since March. Because my SO is immunocompromised, I wasn’t able to train at any studio until I recently ordered a rig and moved into an elementary school gym-turned-apartment! (Score!!)
                                        So ready to fly again! 🙂

                                                My name is Lena and I fell in love with Silks 2016 and I am still loving it! Unfortunately I only have access to a rig once a week and have to switch between Hammock (my second love) and Silks. But I will try to keep up and can’t wait to see your beautiful videos <3 I am used to train alone and I don’t like it, thats why I am really happy about this virtual classes.

The roof at the studio here is about 16 feet, don’t know if it’s enough… the truth is I’m a chicken

                                                        Hi, I’m Hila!

                                                        Thank you so much for starting this thread, what a great idea! Great to meet everyone!

                                                        I got hooked one day when I happened to turn the wrong way after getting a pedicure and saw Rachel teaching a bunch of kids through a window. I took the last spot in the only adult class the studio offered (which happened to be an advanced silks class, haha). This was some years back soon after having a baby, and I’m super happy to be working with Rachel and Brett again!

                                                        Other than this, I live a very full life–5 fish, 2 kids (now home schooling), 2 cats, 1 husband, 1 mouse, 1 full time job (Public Health/Safety position at an Aerospace company), 1 college course….

                                                            Aloha everyone,

                                                            My name is Jolene. I’m so excited to meet and be training with you all, even virtually. This online community and resource is such a godsend for me during this time. We are under a serious lock down in Hawaii and I’m very much missing my aerial comrades.

                                                            Be well and be safe!

I fell in love with silks in 2014, and have been training to varying degrees since then. I bought an 11 foot rig in March and have been using it to keep up my strength and play with sequences that don’t require much height. Excited to learn some new repertoire and continue training!

I’m so excited about every aspect of this online community: the people from all over the world, the content, the stars, all of it! I’ve switched from training in studios surrounded by supportive friends and instructors with lots of knowledge, to training on my own in my backyard (battling lots of FL heat and rain recently). It’s been a struggle to say the least, so I’ll take all of the motivation, accountability, structure, and peer support that I can get at this point haha 😛 I took the Emerge workshop during quarantine, and it was so much fun and so inspiring! Rachel and Brett are so good at explaining and making you forget that you’re not there in their studio. I want to recommend to anyone transitioning to learning online for the first time like I was: watch the videos many times, in slow motion even, and take A LOT of very detailed notes before trying the trick on your own. I found not having the instructor physically there when you’re trying a trick for the first time is much less difficult this way. Start a physical/digital folder or notebook now! Happy flying my fellow silk stars! <3

Been locked down here since March, but I’m lucky to have a rig in my back yard! Been having virtual meet ups with my aerial pals…we can’t practice in the same space, but we can still practice together.

I started out with pole and eventually came to love aerial silks, so I have been mostly doing self training since learning how to do some basics. I was part of the Emerge workshops and I certainly enjoyed everything about it even though it was quite challenging for me. I look forward to this program, already I had picked up a lot of pointers with the double star drop! Thank you Rachel and Brett for making this possible!

I’ve been enjoying silks, lyra or trapeze fo about 5 years now, minus the last 6 months, when the only training I made time for was the Emerge workshop. I hardly even did any of Rachel and Brett’s Aerial Powerhouse training, I have been so yucky busy at work. It’s thrilling to have a focus now for monthly training—thanks you two!!

                                                                                                            I’m Vanessa (from Poland). I’m living in Cologne, Germany, right now, enjoying the last sunny days outside doing a little bit of outdoor silks training 🙂 My aerial journey startet about a year and half ago and I got completely addicted to it, which is quite funny, since I have never done much sports, but well, we will all get there eventually 🙂
                                                                                                            I got really interested in SilkStars because of its focus on choreography/performance. The aerial silk courses I’ve visited consisted of a new move each time, maybe a little combination, that you practised once and forgot about straight after. That’s what got me into pole, where we have an instructor who focuses a lot on perfecting moves and even dancing them to music. I was trying to do the same during my own training on the silks, but it turned out to be much harder than I thought (esp. compared to pole, where you dont get entangled and you’re not working with an appartatus that sometimes seems to have its own mind), which is why I was so excited to read up about SilkStars. Thanks for this great opportunity!

                                                                                                                  I fell in love with silks a couple of years ago after doing pole for about a year first. I found aerials after a few years teaching/performing rope (Japanese, not aerial ropes) around Australia and overseas. I love the connection and transition I have found from this to silks.

                                                                                                                  Looking forward to getting to be a part of this virtual community 💕

I subscribed to silks stars and then my work got so busy – so I’m excited to be joining in a bit late. My name is Sara – and I love all things aerial – silks, sling, and rope mostly though! I was training a lot on my rig, but now our studio (I’m a co-owner) in the small town of Grass Valley, CA allowed gyms to reopen – so we are now teaching very small/masks worn classes for students. I feel like my own practice and progression has been lacking since March, so I’m very excited to delve into these fun challenges and connect with you all!

I was an aerial teacher and performer for a few years but after lockdown in March I took a step back and went back to performing touring circus again as of June, no regrets but I do miss everyone.

                                                                                                                                  My beforetimes studios (I was an advanced student) have been closed since March, one of them semi-permanently. I have a friend with a silks point in her props warehouse, so I’ve been back in the air since September, but only once a week, and mostly focused on regaining strength, and coaching the friend, who was a newer student and still mastering more basic skills. (I’m not teaching her anything new so much as giving her pointers and encouragement on skills she was taught but had not yet mastered in the beforetimes.) I’m excited to work on new combinations again. I tried the mini-rig bonus challenge last week, and was surprised by how quickly I got tired stringing just a couple of things together. Clearly I need to work on my endurance!

Unfortunately I had three weeks break due to lockdown, but I dedicated this time to go through my best Aerial moments. One of them is a silks performance you can see here:

All the studios here are still shut down because of the pandemic so I’ve been training without a coach. It’ll be good to get some guidance and feedback again. I’ve been doing silks for about 3 years, and lyra and straps for about a year. Thanks for offering a virtual place for us to learn.

I am so excited to be a part of Silks Stars. I am a hairstylist by day, aerial instructor at night. Most of the time I play with straight silks, sling and rope. Sometimes I dabble with trapeze and lyra as well. I’ve been practicing aerial for almost 9 years now and teaching for 3 years. Since I started teaching 5-6 days a week, I’ve noticed that I don’t get much time to practice and explore for myself. I’m hoping with this program and the community of supportive aerialist it has brought together, I will be able to rediscover the student and performer in me! I look forward to chatting and getting to know all of you!

I’m originally from Québec, Canada. But I’ve been in the USA for quite a while now. I’m presently in Vermont but will move in Pennsylvania in June. I discovered Aerial Silks a little bit over a year ago and have been in love with it ever since. I really enjoyed this new community and the opportunity to learn something new every month. I’m also very grateful that you provide an option for those of us who just have access to a mini-rig. Mine doesn’t allow drops. I hope you will continue to give us sequences without drops.

I have been doing aerials for about 8 years and fell in love with it! I am originally from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada but moved to Regina, Saskatchewan about 4 years ago.

I love how it challenges my athleticism and fitness level. Thank you all for your encouragement and support… so much positivity in a time so desperately needed.

I’m Christine from Spanish Fort, Alabama. Started training aerial silks with an instructor in 2019. Played with hammock a year before that. Bought my own rig in ‘20. There’s nothing I enjoy more other than my kids, husband, sailing and music! And my cat!

I am excited to see how this program and community help me grow in my practice. I also train Lyra. IG: erica_aerial

I am out of range most of the time because I am living on a sailing boat, but the monthly challenges are so great to watch! I try only some of them here on the boat because it’s a bit dodgy, but will have so much fun catching up once I am a land based mammal again.

Silks Stars member from the start, but slow to post something here. I’ve been doing silks for around 5 years, so I guess late 2016! It was an amazing thing to emerge back into the world with after having 2 children. It provides me with a space for creativity, a space to dance, better health, great inclusive community, and meditation in a way – because when I’m at circus my mind is at circus and nowhere else. I train at an amazing space here in New Zealand, called The Circus Hub. I’m constantly inspired by all the other apparatus and what people do on them, but I haven’t really strayed away from silks yet. I’ve really enjoyed the way Silks Stars has encouraged me to create mini performances and think about how I can move on the silks and interpret things in my way.

SO excited to be here. I have been a member for a few months now, but I have just been dabbling. It has been challenging to fine consistency in my personal practice (I am an aerial and dance instructor, so developing curriculum takes most of my time in the studio). My goal is to spend more *me time* in this space! I just started working on the January challenge because it looked so fun.

                                                                                                                                                                                                My name is: Hanna (pronounced hah-na, or like Hana, Maui)

I started doing silks September a year ago aged 41 and with no acrobatic, dance or other background whatsoever. I wish I had discovered it 20 years earlier! But better late than never, enjoying it tremendously. Coaching opportunities where I live a rather restricted, therefore I joined SilkStars to find new inspirations to grow. I can do all the fundamentals, but the monthly challenges are extremely challenging for me!!!

I am late to join the SilkStars community but happy to have found the group. I grew up performing in a youth circus in Peru, IN but never had the opportunity to train silks. Found a studio about two years ago and have been enjoying every minute of aerial time ever since. I cross train into double trapeze and flying trapeze. Looking forward to learning from everyone here and being challenged with the monthly sequences.

My name is Elizabeth; I joined Silks Stars because about a year after a cross-country move I never really found my training rhythm.

My name is Kari and I’ve been doing silks for about 10 years, just for fun, but I love it! I’m excited to try some of these combos, but unfortunately I have limited rig time. I’m hoping to do more this fall/winter. Cheers!

I came upon Womack and Bowman via Instagram and then a teacher at our studio turned me onto Silks Stars. I’ve been a member a couple of months but just now starting to interact. Posted my first monthly challenge and am so excited to keep learning with you all! This is an amazing group of aerialists and seeing everyone’s videos is super fun.
