Ironman UK 2011

Viva Aerial Dance provided the aerialists for the Ironman UK 2011 Pasta Party in Bolton on July 31st.

"I just wanted to say that the girls were absolutely wonderful at our pasta party, we had a lot of positive feedback about the night, and they were definitely a huge highlight! They were easy to manage, self-sufficient and great overall!"  Laurena Abraham - World Endurance UK Ltd

Amsterdam - LM Windpower September 16th 2010

Not often you get to work for a company so close to your heart but loved being part of this wind turbine promotion event.  Working in collaboration with The Wrong Size stilt company, we created a 12 minute stilt and silk dance piece to showcase and interpret LM Windpower's newly composed soundtrack.  Set in Amsterdam's 'Westergasfabriek' or 'an old gas holder' as we were reliably informed, this was new energy from old energy, so we gave it some aerial energy too!
