As an Aerial Arts Coach as well as a Certified Personal Trainer and lifelong dancer/ choreographer, Mandy is passionate about the inner workings of the body and using mind-body connections to work smart and achieve strength and ease in movement. She offers private and group instruction in aerial and ground disciplines, with an emphasis on efficient movement patterns and creative pathways to movement, building innovations from known skills, and exploring unknown possibilities.

Mandy’s teaching home is Frequent Flyers Productions of Boulder, CO, where she is a Performance Company member and coach to aerialist from pre-k to pre-professional. She particularly enjoys teaching technique, conditioning, and act creation in FFP’s Professional Track Intensive Training Program, and in their Kids Who Fly Program for at-risk youth.
