Andrea

Born and raised in Colorado, Andrea started lyra early in 2021 and has found a love of circus and fitness because of it - let's lift heavy and get strong! As a larger aerialist herself, she strives to make classes accessible to all body shapes and strengths, emphasizing the mindset that if you learned a lot and had fun during class, then you had exactly the experience you were meant to. Andrea loves a challenge but understands that some moves take time and progressions to learn safely, and different bodies learn at different rates -- that's all okay because we are all learning together!
