BIOGRAPHY

Hannah is a Melbourne born aerialist known for her elegant and enchanting performances on the swinging trapeze.

 

After attending a less than enlightening aerial yoga class, Hannah discovered circus at the age of 20 and was soon driven to abandon her studies in Prosthetics and Orthotics to pursue a life in the air. Influenced by her training in classical and contemporary dance, Hannah’s work infuses grace with strong balletic lines.

 

Specialising in swinging trapeze under the guidance of renowned coaches Victor Fomine, Rodleigh Stevens and Anna Shelper, Hannah has performed with companies such as Gandeys Circus, Symphony Circus and Opera Australia. Hannah has worked with circuses and corporate events internationally, and in festivals around Australia including the Melbourne Fringe Festival and the Mullumbimby Circus Festival. Counterintuitively, Hannah feels most grounded in the air.
