Strength that soars

Silks, hoop, sling and straps are how I tell stories in the air. I'm Julia, an aerial performer, instructor and model based in London, and I'm happiest somewhere between a technical challenge and a moment of pure expression.

My story

The stage has taken me from winter showcases in Birmingham and circus shows in Oxford to festivals across the UK and performances in Kyiv. Competing keeps me sharp: I've won first place at the Regional UKAPC and Fly High Competitions, and took the Higher Instructor Silks title at the United Aerial Arts Championships.

I also work as a model, most recently for an aerial photography workshop at FAV Studio in London. Being on the other side of the lens has taught me how to shape a line, hold a pose in the air and tell a story in a single frame.

Teaching is where it all comes together. At AfreakA Aerials in Oxford, I guide students of every level, in groups and 1:1, with safe, structured sessions, honest feedback and plenty of room to find their own movement. My Fearless Fly workshop is built around one thing I love helping people with: dropping with confidence, control and a strong technical foundation.

I'm always learning too, from trainers and retreats across Europe, because the best way to teach is to stay a student.
