Hello!
As the owner of Cirque Athletics, I am proud to introduce you to Le Troupe, our Aerial Competition Team. Now entering our fourth season, Le Troupe continues to grow in strength, purpose, and presence - anchored by a team of athletes who exemplify what it means to work hard, show up with character, and rise to the challenge.
Each member of this team is selected not only for their talent but for their dedication to effort, coachability, and community. These athletes train with discipline, perform with heart, and support each other fiercely on the floor, in the air, and beyond.
This season, our focus is on deepening our roots as a 501(c)(3), expanding opportunities for mentorship, artistic development, and collaboration across the country. Whether through live performances, virtual coaching, or ensemble work, Le Troupe is committed to raising the bar for what youth aerial competition can be.
We are not here to solely win a First or Second place, we made the decision to compete so that we can get our students' performance experience in front of the people that grant scholarships, offer contracts and provide awards. We participate in competitions for the opportunity to see what is current in the aerial world and to learn from specialty instructors and master coaches currently working in the professional community. Competing prepares students to create a goal and develop the discipline to prepare an artistic piece within a time period that will be subject to constructive criticism which will, if channeled positively and with a growth mindset, will make them better artists and performers. Members of The Troupe are encouraged to express themselves artistically in celebration of their own unique style.
