Meet your instructor

Learn With Zephyr

Zephyr started her aerial journey right here at Bend + Fly in early 2021—and she has been hooked ever since.

What began as an outlet during a tough time quickly became her sanctuary, offering both physical challenge and emotional release.

Driven by that passion, she went on to complete certifications as an Advanced Aerial Instructor, Aerial Yoga Therapeutics Facilitator, and Dance Hammock teacher. Her curiosity also led her to explore other apparatuses including Aerial Lyra and Dance Trapeze.

Now teaching at the studio where it all began, Zephyr’s mission is simple: to create a welcoming space where students feel safe to move, play and reconnect with their bodies in new and empowering ways.
