From a Small Shared Space to a Thriving Circus Community
Every great circus has a story, and ours started with a big dream and a very small space!
Sky Circus began in a shared space inside a CrossFit gym in Rocky River, Ohio. What started as a passion for aerial arts quickly grew into something much bigger. As more people discovered the excitement, creativity, and confidence that circus arts could bring, we expanded into Cleveland and eventually opened our very own dedicated circus studio in Warrensville Heights!
Today, Sky Circus is more than just a place to take classes. It's a community where people of all ages can challenge themselves, discover new talents, build friendships, and accomplish things they never thought possible.
The History
Meet Emiley – Owner & Founder
​



With over 15 years of circus experience, Emily has dedicated her life to bringing the magic of circus arts to Northeast Ohio.
After discovering her own love for circus, she recognized that Northeast Ohio needed a welcoming space where people could explore aerial arts and other unique circus disciplines. What began as a small dream has grown into a community of students, instructors, and performers who share a love for movement, creativity, and trying something new.
When she's not teaching or running the studios, Emily is traveling and performing, bringing circus entertainment to audiences near and far.
And when she's not at the studio or on the road? Life is still a circus! Emily is a mom to three kids and shares her home with five cats, two dogs, and a revolving door of foster animals.
More Than a Studio. We're a Circus Family.
At Sky Circus Warrensville, we believe circus is for everyone. Whether you're stepping into an aerial class for the very first time or working toward your next big skill, there's a place for you here.
Our goal has always been simple: to create a supportive, welcoming community where kids and adults can grow stronger, gain confidence, make friends, and have fun along the way.
We've come a long way from that little corner of a CrossFit gym, and we're so excited to keep growing with you.
Come fly with us. Your circus adventure starts here! 🎪
