Zoe, Act Transitions Class

Second time watching this course with Johanna Sapakie because I really get stuck on transitions! Cirque (or really any performing art) friends don't sleep on this free advice from this legend!

Angie, Music Selection Class

This particular set of videos on choosing music for an act is so great. I wish this would have been around when I was getting started! @birdgerhl_

Josh, Straps Wraps & Conditioning

It's so awesome to have access to such quality videos and learn from top professionals in the industry. Can't wait to see what you guys produce next!

Kelly, Contortion Course

The contortion coach @msacircusarts is incredible. Something she said that resonated with me is: "If you've had an idea and are connecting with it that means somebody else will connect with it too." @lyskei
