Melissa Coffey

Melissa enjoys the spotlight and a breathless audience, hearing the surprise and screams coming from a crowd or watching the lights dance on her skin while she defies gravity.

She views her training as having holistic approach and while she values expression, she demands intentionality with form, effort, and gesture.

Melissa is founder of dances in air, which has released the first trapeze teaching DVD, and she teaches at festivals around north and central America, and hosts her own aerial retreats in January and February every year in costa Rica!
