Enya is a trapeze artist, aerial coach, Guinness World Record holder, and a graduate of the National Circus School of Montreal. Her work has been featured in Luzia by Cirque du Soleil, and after more than 2,700 performances and a decade of teaching workshops internationally, she brings both stage experience and a refined eye for movement to every class she teaches. Known for her love of spinning and her obsession with movement quality, Enya’s teaching focuses on the intention behind every shape and how movements flow in and out of one another. She has a talent for transforming simple positions into rich, dynamic sequences that feel effortless, musical, and deeply satisfying to perform. Rather than focusing on tricks alone, Enya helps aerialists understand the why behind what they ’re doing. Through clear progressions, creative exploration, and attention to detail, students learn how to refine their execution, move more efficiently, and develop their own artistic voice. Her goal is simple: to give aerialists tools that make their practice more expressive, more creative, and more fun.

Spin club: Master the art of spinning
In this 90-min workshop for all apparatus, we will: Deconstruct the mechanics of a fast spin, avoid orbiting when starting them, and how different spinning dynamics will influence choreography and vice versa. Learn proper alignment in different spinning positions to more easily find your center. Practice off-apparatus exercises for better control. Learn ways to “come back” quickly after spinning fast. Create more efficient spins, maintain them for longer and control them.
This workshop is designed for aerialists with a good spin tolerance and experience working with
spinning. The session includes a variety of off-apparatus exercises to help you gain better control
over your spins. We won’t be spinning for the full 1.5 hours, and you are welcome to sit out and
take notes and/or videos at any time.
