Lift with precision. Fly with authority.

Stronger tricks start on the ground.

 

Aerial is a reflection of the strength you already have.

 

If you want lighter inverts…

More stable meathooks…

Stronger pulling…

Overhead positions that don’t feel sketchy…

 

You need more strength capacity.

You don’t get strong by doing more aerial.

You get strong by lifting.

Sovereign Strength is a 4-week barbell challenge designed specifically for aerialists who are ready to stop guessing in the gym — and start building strength that actually carries over to the air.

Sovereign Strength is a 4-week barbell challenge designed specifically for aerialists who are ready to stop guessing in the gym — and start building strength that actually carries over to the air.

This Is Not…

• Random conditioning circuits
• Bodyweight-only strength
• “Just lift heavy and hope”
• A generic internet lifting program

And it’s definitely not:

Trying to aerial your way out of a strength deficit.

This is foundational barbell work — taught precisely — so it improves your performance in the air.

"As a coach you: help me understand how my body is trying to put things together; educate on how to move more optimally for MY body; double as a therapist, meme dealer, & curse word generator; provide a community to exist as oneself without judgment; provide realistic & personalized accountability; provide continuing education and support on longevity in LIFE."

 
Lara Hotz

"Jessica's expertise is being able to turn goals into drills that target the anatomy needed to make it happen. Then she gives feedback in a direct, actionable way... without judgment! And she's extremely patient with me and my big feelings despite my need for exact guidance lol."

 
Nicole Sirdoreus

Who This Is For:

Sovereign Strength is for you if:

  • Your inverts feel heavier than they should.
  • Your pulling strength feels inconsistent.
  • You dread conditioning in class.
  • Your shoulders are always “a little cranky.”
  • You’ve never really felt like a “gym person.”
  • You’re not sure if what you’re doing in the weight room is helping your aerial goals.

And you’re ready to change that!

What Changes in 4 Weeks

 

By the end of this challenge, you’ll likely notice:

  • Your hinge feels stronger.

  • Your pulling feels more stable.

  • Conditioning feels less chaotic.

  • You understand what good lifting form actually feels like.

  • You’re not guessing anymore.

And you may also notice something else:

Strength alone isn’t the whole picture.

To progress long-term, your lifting, mobility, and skill work have to live inside the same system.

(We’ll talk about that soon.)

Why “Sovereign”?

 

Because lifting heavy — intentionally — is not about aesthetics.

It’s about autonomy.

It’s about building capacity instead of shrinking yourself.

It’s about walking into the weight room and knowing exactly what you’re doing — and why.

You are not there to look like a gym bro.

You’re there to build leverage for your aerial practice.

That’s sovereignty.

"Jessica's approach to mobility is a brilliant combination of rehab, research, and flexibility. Flexibility training used to be a really painful experience for me and not something I'd stuck with for more than a few weeks at a time. Being in the Parish, I've done more mobility than I have in my life."

 
Michelle Gardner

"I love the brave feminist space that . . . Circus Mobility is and represents. I also love that Jessica makes herself so available for direct communication. I find dealing directly with the coach behind the program is so important. I feel cared for as an individual rather than part of a business machine!"

About your mentor...

HI, I'M JESSICA.

I’ve been coaching aerial bodies for nearly two decades—and I didn’t get here by following a traditional circus path.

No circus school.
No elite dance or gymnastics pipeline.
No allegiance to perfect toe point or self-appointed guru.

What I’ve always had is curiosity—the kind that learns by paying attention. Long before aerial, that curiosity showed up in tennis, dance, skiing, and any movement practice that asked me to listen closely to my body instead of forcing it to perform.

When I found aerial in my early thirties, it felt like coming home—not because it was easy, but because the questions I’d been asking my whole life finally mattered.

I became a better coach by looking outside of circus: studying nervous systems, biomechanics, pedagogy, power, and relationship. By noticing where traditional coaching models failed real humans—especially women, hypermobile bodies, and coaches without institutional power.

I refuse to believe good coaching should require self-sacrifice, control, or fear.

My role here isn’t to spoon-feed you all the answers. It’s to help you trust your ability to assess, adapt, repair, and lead—without hierarchy, without burnout, and without abandoning yourself in the process.

HOW I EARNED MY PERSPECTIVE.

  • Nearly 20 years coaching aerialists and movement professionals across levels, bodies, and injury histories
  • Former CIA leadership analyst, specializing in decision-making, behavior, and power in complex systems
  • BA, MA, JD—with deep training in analysis, pattern recognition, and ethical responsibility
  • Extensive post-graduate study in biomechanics, nervous system regulation, skill acquisition, pedagogy, and the GYROTONIC® and  GYROKINESIS® Methods
  • Founder of Circus Mobility, including The Conclave, The Parish, Cardinal, and now Sanctum
  • Thousands of hours coaching real humans—not just teaching theory

I don’t teach from credentials alone.
I teach from long-term pattern recognition, lived practice, and methods that actually work in real bodies, over time.
