Our Instructors

Tyla has been training at Circotica since it opened in 2016. Her background is in gymnastics and cheerleading. She began teaching for us in April 2019. She enjoys training aerials, contortion, handstands and adagio.

Training in Circus Arts for over a decade and teaching for six years now, Teresa is a dedicated practitioner and loves to share her passion for circus performance with both kids and adults. Her favourite disciplines are trapeze, partner acro, doubles aerials and handbalancing and she teaches a broad range of circus skills to our littlest Circotica members. Writing, directing and producing circus shows is her developing obsession.

Vale is our aerial specialist from Italy. She began her acrobatic journey in synchronised swimming & started circus in 2010, focusing on silks and rope. 
She is very passionate about “social circus” and has collaborated in different projects in remote areas around the world. 

Emma has been hula hooping for 8 years and loves how it puts a smile on people's faces. As a teacher she embraces fun, and enjoys seeing how happy people are when they nail new, challenging tricks! Other than twirling hula hoops Emma is often found at the pole studio or making balloon animals.

Josh discovered circus in 2017, and with his background in classical and contemporary dance he easily marries beautiful movement both on and off the apparatus. He specializes in trapeze, is a group fitness instructor & his quirky sense-of-humour wins over everybody!

Kiera lives and breathes circus. She is always upside down and inside out, and has incredible passion & skills to share with others. A long-time Circotica member she loves spreading circus love as a contortion and aerial instructor.
