We try our hardest to be a versatile company, so that we can provide you with the most unique show, created and tailored specifically for your event.
We can also offer troupes of performers, should you require a doubles act or any other specialty acts that are not listed below - please do send any inquiries as not all of our available performers are listed on this website.
Aerial Silks
A dramatic performance, always guaranteed to wow an audience
The aerial silks are a mesmerising act, combining the grace and elegance of contemporary dance with the strength and shock factor of the complicated wraps, sheer height and unraveling drops.
Whether you wish to have a performance happening simultaneously with a DJ/Band/other act or would rather a routine that was performed independently, the aerial silks can be dressed and choreographed to a specific theme.
Rotating Aerial Hoop
Aerial Hoop, but with a twist
This Aerial Hoop is a custom made piece of equipment, it is built on ball bearings which allows it to spin smoothly in a completely continuous circle, adding a dynamic effect for a unique performance.
We also offer static aerial hoop which can sometimes suit particular venues better, depending on the setup. Like the aerial silks, both can be performed simultaneously alongside another act or independently.
Lollipop Lyra
The perfect entertainment for all venues
This stunning, totally free standing, apparatus will capture every audience as it combines the beauty and visual of an aerial act with the dynamics of pole acrobatics.
It is perfect for all venues and events due to it being freestanding and only 3m tall.
Burlesque
Fun, sexy, sassy routines
We have a selection of burlesque dancers to choose from and can offer a range of routines, each around 4 minutes long and all in a slightly different style; the classic and traditional burlesque, involving fans or a boa. These are generally a slower, more humorous strip tease. Or you have the more modern, Cabaret and Showgirl routines which are upbeat and focus more on the choreography rather than the strip tease itself.
Fire
Solo or group fire performance
A fire performance is guaranteed to bring the wow factor to any occasion, always a crowd pleaser.
Fire breathing, fire eating using a combination of apparatus's;
We have fire hoops, staff and poi which can be performed as a solo act or as a group performance. It is possible to combine fire with a burlesque or belly dance show to add that extra bit of sparkle and wow factor.
Depending on your event we are happy to tailor our fire show to suit you best, we have done everything from corporate business events to Boomtown festival.
7.5 Metre Portable Aerial Rig
Solution for rigging in all venues, also available for dry hire
This portable aerial rig opens up a whole window of opportunities for venues that do not have suitable rigging, it means you can have performances outside and in places with inaccessible ceilings.
If you wanted the rig to be used at night there is the option to have a smoke machine and LED lights which have a variety of settings (including solid colours, alternate colours and strobes.) This adds a totally different dimension to any performance as all of the above can be programmed to compliment and illuminate the performer.
This rig is also available to hire independently, for example if you wanted to program your own performers but did not have the correct rigging.

Legal info
Aerial performance is a risky profession, this is what makes it all the more impressive to watch. However rest assured that amidst all the 'danger' and wow factor, everything is well practiced, carefully though out, risk assessed and most importantly covered by plenty of insurance!
I am covered by my own public liability and i also have insurance to cover teaching others on my equipment.
Each event will be risk assessed and i can provide a copy of any insurance you may need.
