I'll Be Back!
I would just like to thank you guys again for coming to our school and teaching us the beauty that is the silks, hoops and partner acrobatics! I have been so inspired by Ms. Allison and MA that I am considering sticking with the hoop and getting more training in it! I was thinking about applying for an internship with you guys when I am 18. Not just because of how amazingly fun it is, but because it actually has had a huge, positive impact on my life.

All of the Money in the World...
...is not enough to pay you for the memories that you provided these kids at your workshop. Their faces were pure joy and the memories will last a lifetime!

Starfish Circus
Good Morning!
As a parent of one of the performers in last night show at Douglas Anderson School of the Arts in Jacksonville, Florida - YOU ALL ROCK!
What an amazing experience it has been for all the kids involved. These kids have just had one of the BIGGEST self-confidence boosts of their life! Other than the acrobats what kid could do any of those acts 2 weeks ago?
Thank you for sharing your love and passion with the children. While they are exhausted the memories will be with them, and the parents, forever.
I wish it had been professionally filmed (or, semi-professionally) as I'll be the first in line to purchase.

You all take care - each of you must vow to come back in 3 years! There's a silk artist who simply cannot wait.

Be safe and the best to you all till we see you again.

Starfish Circus, you have given me an incredible experience that I will remember forever. Maybe instead of being an Ambassador, I will join the circus!

-Justin Waldrip

My beloved Starfish
I will never forget this incredible experience! The show we put on last night was phenomenal, and we all had so much fun doing it! Thank you so much for your time, patience, and encouragement. You always had confidence in us (or atleast pretended too), and that helped us try anything and everything! You guys are the best!

From Augustus
HEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEE EEEY Allison!



I didn't get a chance to say good-bye to you last night and I wanted to thank you for everything you've done. I've learned so much in the last two weeks, more than I have with any other show I've been involved with. You're also responsible for bring down my splits, more than I could have ever imagined (Thanks). I'm really going to miss you and the rest of the coaches. Thanks for giving me the time of my life. I'll be in touch.

Augustus Bennett

Ps- I hope you guys come back before my senior year, or that would suck.


The First Starfish
I was fortunate enough to be part of the very first Starfish Circus, and it was incredible! I learned I was able to push myself to climb up in the hoop, on the silk, or into a split, and it felt so good! I never dreamed I would be able to do anything like this, and I'm so grateful to all the wonderful coaches for their hard work! Their individual attention and encouragement makes the experience even better. The tricks may seem dangerous, but with Allison or Zay standing next to you, you feel completely safe! Thanks for everything guys! -Colleen Veldt

-Avery Franklin

Thankyou SOOOO much for coming!!
I miss y'all soooo much already! It was such a fabulous experience! COME AGAIN NEXT YEAR!!! Anna Strong

This is amazing
I was in the first Starfish Circus in the summer of 2007. It was so amazing, it was my first experience on the Aerial Silks and through it I discovered a new passion of mine. I was in it again in December of 2007, it was even more amazing the second time. It provides a rare opportunity to learn and experience something very unique. The coaches are some of the most fun people in the world and they work amazing with everyone from little kids to teenagers. I would definitely tell you to get involved if you ever have the chance, because if you don't you will be missing out on one of the most fun learning experiences in the world. -Drake VanDam

Shoop Da Woop
Hey guys this is Steven (the janitor guy) just checking in on you guys to see how you are doing...so how are you doing?

Just want to let you know that Starfish Circus was an amazing experience and I've had so much fun working with you guys. You are awesome...it was epic. Although I wont be here in three years I will definitely see the next show.

To College and Beyond
I would like to congratulate every member of the Starfish Circus for making tonight's show the most fun of any I have ever been a part of. Every one of you is extremely talented and everything you learned in this past week is absolutely stunning. Thank you for making tonight one of the best memories that I will carry with me to college and beyond.

Tricky
Amazing how y'all made those talented obviously professional acrobats look like GHS students @.@
