Brit is a movement artist fostering mental and physical empowerment through formative and inspired aerial coaching. The path she’s chosen in life has always been about manipulating her body in artistic ways. For 19 years she trained and competed nationally in classical ballet and contemporary dance. In a rebellious turn of events around 2006, she traded her pointe shoes for circus props and gallivanted all over the country slinging fire on the streets for money. Those adventures cannon-balled her into the world of circus, and so began the wild love affair she has with aerial arts today.
She’s currently living in Hawaii where she coaches students locally and across the globe. As a way to connect with a wider range of artists geographically, Brit spends time cooking up virtual aerial hoop workshops and will travel to coach as often as she can. She continues to fall in love with the process of being a student herself by seeking a variety of coaches in the industry to further develop her work. She’s trained extensively in aerial and flexibility with numerous coaches internationally and has completed a plethora of anatomy, aerial movement, dance and teacher training from industry leading professionals.
Her approach as a coach is largely focused on deep diving into how individual bodies execute movement. As an artist, she strives to push the boundaries of what is possible. In addition to Brit’s infatuation with efficient movement and creative development, she is unwavering in her quest for longevity in this art form. She’s passionate about chasing knowledge and is often putting herself in situations where personal growth is imminent. In addition, Brit is actively contributing as a coach in The Parish, a virtual space for aerialists of all levels and disciplines—founded by Circus Mobility.
