Biography

I have studied Aerial arts at Westchester Circus Arts for 10 years. I helped the director, Hilary Sweeney, build the company by assisting in open houses, workshops, open-air street performances, gala’s, public relation events and teaching various circus disciplines. I am currently teaching aerial arts both privately and for WCA classes, both adult and children. I have experience in yoga, pole and chair dance and have studied belly dance for 3 and a half years. I am certified to teach circus arts to special needs children through Holistic Circus Therapy and am certified to teach lyra through ... CirqFit. I am driven to succeed. I love to learn and grow as I live. I am an extremely disciplined individual. QUALIFICATIONS: Lyra, cube, partnering routines, silks, stilts, pole.

Amanda Jane - Aerialist / Acrobat - Peekskill, New York Event Location: Ossining, NY Event Type: Birthday Party 31st March 2024

Omg was so cute, all dressed up like Blue from Blues Clues for my daughter's second birthday. The smile on my toddlers face was priceless and made for amazing photos. And on Easter Sunday. My mother in law was thrilled. Everyone loved it!

Meet the Act

I once saw an aerialist at an Ozzfest and thought “That’s the thing!” I started taking classes and instantly fell in love. One class turned into two, which turned into five, which turned into “I want to audition for a show.”
I trained every day for a year to audition for Le Reve in Las Vegas. In tandem with my aerial classes, I took ballroom dance lessons, joined a gym and got a personal trainer. I went to the audition feeling prepared. I did not get a call back but I had officially established myself as a performer.

Additional Information

Insured for public liability- insured to teach, perform, and rig apparatus.
I own a portable rig. In the event I can’t rig indoors, I can still perform inside/outside with this rig.
