“Flourish encouraged me to invest in myself the way I invest in my students. Jess listened to my goals and helped me access difficult pathways with unending positivity and kindness. I felt like I had an invested partner to hold me accountable to my progress, including the wins. It was a nurturing experience and I recommend it for anyone regardless of where you are on your journey!”

  • "I highly recommend this programme if you are looking for really thorough and purposeful support in reaching your aerial goals. Jess gives THE BEST detailed training plans for a roadmap to unlock skills or other goals you want to achieve. Always supportive and attentive to your needs as well as uplifting and understanding. A dream coach to work with."

  • "Flourish has been the most transformative thing I have done for my rope journey. I have done many group classes and privates, but this was very different. Doing the one on one sessions were incredibly encouraging. Jess is able to pick out that one thing to focus on to raise you to the next level while being so motivational and uplifting. As a coach, she can put together the technical coaching, the pathway of progressing and the much needed encouragement!"

  • "Jess is an amazing coach and rope artist. I took my first private with her and immediately wanted to book another. She gives great cues and has the ability to tailor feedback and drills to your needs and body type. I have made so much progress in skills that I have been struggling with for a long time in just one or two lessons. In addition to the private lessons, the reference videos and class notes that she puts together is an invaluable tool - you can tell that she is dedicated to her work and is invested in her student's success."

Flourish could be right for you if…

  • you’re a rope or sling aerialist with experience who trains regularly and has access to a training space

  • you enjoy personalised learning that moves at your pace and with the input of a coach sensitive to your needs

  • you can only access group classes and they don’t cater to your specific interests or learning style

  • you live somewhere without in person access to the kind of rope or sling coach you’d like to work with

  • you’ve already worked 1:1 with a coach, but you didn’t know how to train between lessons to make the most of what they’re teaching you

  • you’re a busy coach yourself and you struggle to make time or headspace for your own practice

  • you want to carve out an oasis of training focus and you need the accountability and consistency that comes from having a coach’s presence and attention during lessons and support in between.
