About me
My name is Vanessa Vilchis, I am a Mexican artist and circus lover with 10+ years of experience. My work is mainly focused on aerial silks and aerial hammock as I feel it allows me to connect my art, my body and my soul in an aesthetic way.
As a performer, my experience has always been rewarding, each performance becomes an opportunity for self-discovery, exploration and artistic growth. On the other hand, I also enjoy teaching, I believe that every class is a new opportunity to learn and unlock the hidden potential of the human body.
The most beautiful thing about my work is that I continue to learn something new with every experience. I love to share what I know, and that people also share their knowledge with me. That makes me want to continue and give all my passion to my work.
