HOOP / LYRA – aerial and ground based
The aerial hoop or Lyra, is a circular steel apparatus suspended from the ceiling, on which circus artists may perform aerial acrobatics. It can be used static, spinning, or swinging and can be tailored in size and shape to suit the aerialist.
AERIAL SILKS
Aerial silk is a performance in which one or more artists perform aerial acrobatics while hanging from a fabric. Performers climb the suspended fabric without the use of safety lines, and rely only on their training and skill to ensure safety. They use the fabric to wrap, suspend, fall, swing, and spiral their bodies in and out of various positions. Aerial silks may be used to fly through the air, striking poses and figures while flying.
Jade has adapted her abilities to perform this stunning aerial art with grace and elegance. She has trained with ex-circus artists when developing her range if skills.

POLE DANCING
In the 1920s, traveling circuses and sideshows would utilize pole dancing with a pole in the middle of a tent. Eventually pole dancing moved from tents to bars, and combined with burlesque dance. The earliest recorded pole dance was in 1968 with a performance by Belle Jangles at Mugwump in Oregon.
In 2010 Jade Maree discovered the love for pole dancing, attending her first class at Polercise WA Aerial Fitness Studio, Australia. Since then she has performed and competed at many events, walking away with 2nd place the Miss SW Australian Pole Competition.
