Testimonials.
“I really enjoyed working with Jess, she is a fantastic teacher who is kind, patient and detailed in her explanations. She is able to break down complex pathways and drills making them understandable and achievable. The use of the video library and class notes are invaluable training tools to help you progress between classes. This system sets Jess's online classes apart from other instructors I've had. Would highly recommend!”

“I learn best in a collaborative setting, where coach and athlete work together to structure training around the athlete’s goals, strengths, and areas that need improvement. Jess does a wonderful job of meeting me wherever I am each day and putting together lesson plans with enough new skills to be engaging and enough review to enhance long-term learning. Plus, I love the homework notes and video library, since I do best with a weekly plan for training rather than just winging it in between lessons. “

“Jess is an amazing teacher and highly skilled at rope and hammock aerial disciplines! She is an all-round lovely person to work with and very supportive. You feel safe and driven when learning aerial with her, whether you want to learn cool easy tricks or high-level badass tricks.
She pays so much attention to detail and is able to troubleshoot most barriers to her students achieving a movement or trick on aerial apparatus. In her lessons, she is also able to recommend alterations to movements to compensate for different body types, capabilities and injuries. She very clearly understands that people have different body proportions, different flexibility and mobility ranges, different ways of learning, and she tries to cater for each individual's needs.
She also has an amazingly well organized and very extensive library of pre-recorded videos of aerial movements she teaches, she is able to show you demonstrations in slow motion while explaining each trick. This is especially handy when doing online lessons.
Finally, she gives you very constructive feedback and class notes after sessions, so you can practice what you have learnt on your own with access to the videos in her library applicable to the lessons you had.”

“Jess is an amazing, talented and empowering aerial coach. She is such a lovely person and always brings her calm, kind and empathetic approach to her coaching. She takes a lot of time to understand you as a person and excels in adapting, whether its helping to find a way to make a skill work for your body proportions or a last minute change of lesson plan because you're tired or injured.
She is always understanding and you never feel inadequate or alone in your struggles. She is excellent at cueing and demystifying confusing skills- I've made many breakthroughs from working with Jess. When I'm struggling with something I often find Jess can look at it once and give me a cue that works for my body and enables me to unlock a goal.
She is highly organised and has a huge knowledge of rope and aerial theory in general and an analytical, detail focused mindset. She uses this to plan well balanced lessons that are tailored to your goals, and have a good balance of fun and achievable material and longer-term 'projects' to develop your practice. She also provides extremely detailed homework and feedback notes which have been so valuable and enabled me to make loads of progress in between lessons as well. I can't recommend working with Jess enough.”

“Even though good coaching can feel like a big financial leap for some students it can actually be a huge savings in time and frustration in comparison to working unguided towards specific goals. Or working with coaches that have a different focus or level of expertise than what you are working towards. I would 100% recommend Jess under my list of high value coaches.”

“Jess is an enthusiastic and wonderfully technical teacher. She brings an excellent library of fun rope moves to learn from and has a sharp eye for making micro corrections as well as more fundamental ones. She's skilled at breaking down a move and really understands the pathway as well as the body. I highly recommend her.”
