Meet Your Founder

I‘m Lucretia and I am so happy you are here! I discovered aerial in 2018 after dreaming I was flying. I needed a safe space to move without judgment and aerial dance gave me that. By 2021 I was performing Fairy in the Lake at Playhouse Square, with Obediya Wonderful, How the Circus Stole Christmas with Crooked River Circus, and with the BIPOC Circus Alliance in Chicago. I even produced my own Aerial Biopic "Flyy Girl" with the Border Light Festival on Playhouse Square under Fly Girl Productions! After an injury that left me unable to walk for 3 months I had one goal, to get back in the air. That journey led me to opening Goddess Aerial Arts because this art changed my life and I want it to change yours too. Come fly with us!
