What People Are Saying:
“Kerry stands out as an exceptional instructor in that she has the rare ability to manage students of multiple levels in a single class. Her choreography is also on point. You don’t just learn tricks in Kerry’s classes, you learn how to perform.” – Simone
“She approaches teaching comes from a very dance instructor mindset: I am the teacher, I take ownership for my students and I’m responsible for their progress.I feel very few aerial studios in Los Angeles actually do this. They treat clients as customers versus students and don’t actually take responsibility for their students’ progress. Kerry has a training philosophy that she executes well. Simply, her students get results.” – Marie H.
“The first time I stepped into Kerry’s class, I didn’t know what I was getting into but I wanted to learn something new. Thanks to her patience, knowledge of how bodies move and simple instruction, I’ve been able to start an aerial journey that I love. If you’re willing to do the work and listen, Kerry can help find the aerialist in you.” – Daphne
