Silver Lining Circus Camp welcomes Amaya Jimenez to our summer coaching staff this year!
She started her career as a gymnastics coach, before spiraling—gracefully—into coaching high school competition and sideline cheerleading camps, and eventually dance. At some point she realized the floor was optional and has been making increasingly questionable life choices (like climbing poles on purpose) ever since.
Her favorite apparatus is Chinese pole, where she specializes in controlled chaos, dramatic drops, and pretending gravity is just a suggestion. She is currently training in a professional circus program and plans to continue at New England Center for Circus Arts next year.
When she is not training or coaching you can find her avoiding her least favorite vegetable: beets.
If you have a kid who might like to learn some really fun circus skills with our incredible cast of summer coaches, we have a few spots left at camp: https://www.flyinggravitycircus.org/silver-lining-circus-camp
