It is with great pleasure that we welcome one of our long time students, William Ott to the EA instructor team! As of late William has been busy working with my Nose Turns Red Youth Circus Company – for those folks with kids too young for our program (under 12), we highly recommend checking them out as they offer some lovely youth programs! However, most of our student base will recognize Will from our student showcase where he has blown us ALL away with his one of a kind creative performances.
William will be offering an Open Gym and an Intro to Aerial class every Sunday throughout the upcoming summer months. Be sure to register in advance as spots are limited and give him a warm welcome as we hope to be seeing him for many years to come!!
A little more about William:
“William took his first foray into circus arts when he was 16 and a co-worker brought a unicycle to work. Since then he has learned to unicycle, juggle, diabolo, and show off a few skills in a German Wheel. William is always open to the opportunity of challenging himself with a new skill.
William discovered aerials three years ago, and was immediately drawn in. The versatility of aerials for strength building, achieving greater flexibility, and providing an outlet for artistic expression are all part of what engaged William.
Seeing students develop a movement style unique to themselves is always amazing. The variety of ways that one sequence of moves can be performed, and the complexity of personality, style, and artistic choice that students incorporate into their work is mesmerizing to watch.
William is currently undergoing certification in Lyra with Paper Doll Militia.
