In honor of Terry Sendgraff (1933-2019), the Mother of Aerial Dance. Her legacy lives on in Frequent Flyers® Aerial Dance, and we trace our lineage to her work. Terry was instrumental in the development of the Aerial Dance Festival, having attended the first one in 1999 and then continued to teach and create performance pieces for several more Festivals. This Retrospective premiered at the 25th anniversary Aerial Dance Festival 2023 Performance Showcase and prefaced the performance of one of Terry’s signature pieces “Scorched” by Frequent Flyers.
