Hey ya!
It was 2007 and I found myself attending my very first aerial class in New York City. I was excited and downright terrified. It was beautiful, invigorating and oh so challenging. From day one, I was hooked.
After a few years of disciplined training, along with my ballet background to back it up, I began booking jobs performing as a professional aerialist. I quit my job teaching Pilates and jumped into the 'suitcase life'. I traveled, performed and lived what I thought was my dream.
Shortly, I realized I had gotten myself into a terrible, non-authentic relationship. I had never been more stressed, frightened and worried and to top it off, found myself thousands of dollars in debt. This so-called dream of mine... needed a makeover.
I gained enough courage, left that detrimental relationship and moved to Los Angeles.
I got a desk job selling memberships at the swankiest gym in town!
It was a fresh start, but I knew I had more to offer than making phone calls and selling memberships, ALL for someone else to get rich!
In the summer of 2012, I quit that sedentary desk job, met my future husband and began my company Aerial Physique. I started teaching classes in the corner of a small Pilates studio with an eleven foot ceiling and only a handful of clients.
There was a mental shift and it took courage to dream big and I soon realized, humble beginnings can quickly take a turn for the best! Within a few dedicated years, I had full classes, books available to the world, a booming teacher training course, my first world tour. I was happily living out my dream and making money while I slept. Say it with me, you gotta have GOALS !!
Flash forward to 2020. Aerial Physique is the leader in the aerial industry and a globally known brand.
Are you scared to go after your dream? Are you unsure where to start? Do you feel overwhelmed about all the steps to take? Do you fear what others or even your parents or a partner will say about you.. if you start your own business?
I'm here to tell you that early on ... there were times I carried these type thoughts too.
Together we are going to eliminate the guessing game and get your dream business up and running.
In other words... I gotcha!
