I never thought I would have upper body strength and active flexibility! Audrey proved me wrong and with her guidance I'm now stronger than ever and can do splits in the air!
Audrey has been an incredible silks and straps instructor both for group classes and 1 to 1 privates. She always pushes me to train to achieve goals I didn't think I'd be able to reach and become stronger.
Audrey has been able to tailor my training around my hyper-mobility in a way that has helped me to improve more than in any previous training; helping with strength, stability, dynamic movements and active flexibility.
Audrey's knowledge is exactly what I needed in an instructor. She is able to break down moves so that I actually understand the mechanics behind it and the muscles that I should be engaging, and it has made such a big difference in my progress. I highly recommend her as an instructor.
I've trained with Audrey for several years across aerial silks, rope, straps and flexibility, both in classes and through 1-to-1 sessions.
She is friendly, approachable and incredibly knowledgeable and her interest in anatomy and physiology really comes through in the way she teaches. Audrey is brilliant at spotting what's going on in my body, explaining why it might be happening, and giving me clear, practical ways to work on it. I've always really valued that she doesn't just tell me what to do but helps me understand the why behind it too.
She's also great at meeting me where I'm at. Whether I'm progressing well, coming back from injury, or going through a period where things feel a bit harder, she adapts things so I'm still being challenged without being pushed beyond what's appropriate for me at that point.
Over the years, Audrey has helped me build a huge amount of aerial strength and body awareness, including helping me achieve my long arm/long leg invert. She's also made me a better aerial instructor myself, simply because I now understand so much more about movement, strength and how different bodies work.
More recently, we've been working online on the flexibility and stability needed for my front splits. I haven't achieved a full split yet, but I can absolutely feel the difference! I'm stronger and more stable in certain ranges, some areas feel like they've started to release, and I have a clearer idea of what may actually be limiting me and where I need to focus my stretching and strengthening through targeted "homework". That has been especially valuable after a significant period away from training following injury.
One of the things I really appreciate about Audrey is how person-centred she is. She genuinely wants to understand the individual in front of her and she brings a lot of warmth and humility to the way she teaches. If she doesn't immediately know the answer to something, she'll go away and find it which I really respect.
She also has a banging sense of humour, which is very much appreciated when you're 12 reps deep into some horrendous active flexibility exercise and your nervous system needs a bit of convincing that everything is, in fact, fine!
I'd highly recommend Audrey to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, thoughtful and genuinely supportive instructor. She'll meet you where you are, challenge you appropriately and help you understand your body better along the way.
Ever since I started attending your private group sessions, I've not only noticed a big increase in my strength, but I've also improved my coordination and agility on the hoop.
On top of this, I've been attending also your flexibility sessions, which have been absolutely amazing! I've noticed a huge improvement in my range of motion and strength control, which has also helped me on the hoop and with other aerial arts.
Everything is always tailored to each individual's needs and goals. You always explain everything so clearly, which really shows how much knowledge and experience you have! Highly recommend! Thank you for your work❤️
Audrey's classes are the pinnacle of aerial arts training. She is creative and exacting, which makes training rewarding, challenging, and sustainable. She quickly understood and worked with any goals and obstacles I had and have felt a noticeable improvement in my strength and abilities. I would recommend her as a coach to anyone who is serious about progressing.
I attended one of Audrey's workshops with the specific goal of achieving my flare, having only recently started straps. Knowing that it is a technically difficult and challenging movement, I honestly did not think I would get anywhere close to achieving it. However, thanks to Audrey's excellent teaching and guidance, I left the workshop having achieved exactly what I had hoped to accomplish.
Audrey is a highly knowledgeable, detailed and conscientious teacher who takes the time to understand and cater to each individual's needs. I particularly appreciated how thoroughly she broke down each stage of the movement, making a challenging skill feel much more manageable. She also has an excellent sense of when to introduce regressions and progressions, allowing you to work at the right level while still challenging you to achieve more than you may have thought possible within the timeframe.
I have really appreciated all the support and guidance in my aerial trainings. Audrey's professionalism and attention to detail and knowledge have made a huge difference to my progress.
Audrey has helped me with conditioning and played a really important role in helping me bring and create my aerial silks act. I really value how much Audrey has helped me identify areas that need more work. Because of this coaching I have been able to recognise some of my weaknesses and learn, and I feel much more confident in those areas in the air.
Thank you for always pushing me to improve. I'm very grateful for everything you've helped me achieve so far.
I have seen so much progress since training both aerial and flexibility with Audrey. She gives precise, clear and tailored feedback to suit different strengths and areas for improvement. Her approach prioritises strength, technique and control when learning new skills, which makes me feel very safe when training with her.
It's clear from her detailed and thorough approach that Audrey takes pride in helping her students achieve their goals, no matter their starting point. Would 100% recommend!
I've been doing private flexibility training with Audrey, and over the past two months we've been focusing on my needle scale. I really like her approach to training, especially her focus on active flexibility, strength and keeping the hips properly squared.
Audrey's instructions are always very clear and she's great at identifying exactly what I need to work on. I can really feel the difference in both my flexibility and control, and I'm now much closer to achieving a good needle scale than when we started.
Since starting training with Audrey I've seen lots of improvements in my technique, flexibility and strength. She has a great understanding of me and my body and is able to provide progressions and regressions when needed, helping me to understand my strengths and weaknesses and what I should focus on when training independently.
This has meant I've achieved some skills this year that I thought would take me much longer to achieve or that I wasn't sure I'd ever manage. She is also very encouraging when I'm feeling nervous and breaks down movements so I can go at my own pace. I would highly recommend training with Audrey!
Working with Audrey has been amazing! I've been working with her to improve my strength and flexibility to reach my goals as an aerialist. Her training is always really well thought out and tailored to what you need as an individual. The sessions are always motivating and productive. If you want to see real results and reach your goals Audrey is the best person for the job!
Audrey is amazing! I've trained with her for several years and always feel fantastic after her classes. She is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, and always learning new ideas and training methods. I feel very safe training with her, as she guides us to build strength and flexibility whilst also focusing on keeping our bodies healthy and injury-free. I think I'm now the strongest, healthiest and most flexible I've ever been!
Audrey is an excellent coach who always pushes you to work hard and challenge yourself while celebrating your wins along the way. She is incredibly knowledgeable and always has great advice and tips to help things click, especially when learning new moves on the straps.
Since starting her conditioning classes, I've become so much stronger and noticed such a huge difference in what my body is capable of. Her classes are challenging in the best way, but always feel rewarding, and she creates such a motivating and supportive environment. You'll definitely leave feeling like you've worked hard, but also proud of what you've achieved! I couldn't recommend Audrey's classes enough!
