We’re excited to shine the spotlight on Maria this month! Maria joined us at the studio last year after taking classes in St. Pete for four years prior.
Maria fell in love with aerial after just one class, just like many of us. She hopes everyone gets to experience the joy of aerial at some point in their life. She is currently training at FM Aerial to become one of our instructors to help make that wish a reality for our community!
Q: What brought you to aerial?
A: I was brought to aerial because I was mesmerized by it and I lived in a place for years where it wasn’t available. As soon as I moved back to St. Pete, I knew it was something that I wanted to try. One class turned into two, which turned into four years of flying and it’s one of the best things I’ve ever done. I recently moved to the Fargo area and one of the only reasons why I was okay with it was because there was an aerial studio!
Q: What is your favorite skill right now?
A: My favorite skill lately has been hip holds and and the hip hold split on lyra!
Q: Any fun facts about yourself outside of aerial that you'd like to share?
A: Outside of aerial, I love to crochet and make a lot of my own clothes!
Maria flows with such ease and grace and we are so happy to have her as part of the FM Aerial family!
