Stories of Frequent Flyers’ impact from across our programming:
“Frequent Flyers has always provided me with a safe space to express myself creatively, learn from others in a supportive environment, and cultivate meaningful friendships. Since beginning taking classes at Frequent Flyers, I’ve learned so much about myself, fallen in love with aerial dance, and developed my creativity. Frequent Flyers has given me a constant stream of support, love, and friendship!” – Anonymous Student
“Being part of Frequent Flyers was such a privilege, and while I ultimately went the route of medicine as opposed to continuing dance, I take the creativity and generativity that was nurtured as a part of the time I was in the company with me into my current endeavors!” – Aron Janssen, Professional Company Alumni
“It felt very touching & meaningful. Loved the diversity of performers.” – ADF Performance Showcase Audience Member
“I found what it means to witness, without judgment or bias. I found best friends with whom we shared our ambitions and dreams, and ultimately helped each other propel these into motion. I was pushed to discover how to be an artist without boundaries and an athlete that has one more pull-up in them. I scared myself, surprised myself, and found gratitude for myself. I learned skills, a plethora of aerial vocabulary skills, but most importantly life skills of communication and teamwork.” – Jenna Haddock, ProTraining Alumni
