Aerialist: Julia

Whether she's dancing on the sides of buildings or performing on stage, Julia's expansive artistic career has showcased a diverse array of styles, companies, and locations. Numerous modern dance companies have employed her talents, including Sharir + Bustamante Danceworks, Ariel Dance Theater, Ballet East Dance Theater, Komo Danceworks, Release Motion Dance Project, and the site-specific aerial dance company, Blue Lapis Light.

As a freelancing aerialist, Julia has performed across Texas and was discovered by World Entertainment Services in 2009. She served as their aerialist on lyra, harness, and bungee for the show “Viva!” at SeaWorld San Antonio. Shortly after, she was promoted to the principal aerialist role in the original cast of “Azul,” the new acrobatic/whale and dolphin show at SeaWorld San Antonio. Julia currently performs her innovative aerial act on silks attached to a lyra above a pool of synchronized swimmers, divers, and marine mammals.
