Andi Strackeljahn

Director of Instruction, Aerial Silks and Aerial Hoop Instructor

Trained in French ballet as a child, dance was Andi’s first love but after an introduction to aerial silks during graduate school, silks quickly become her passion. The thrill of defying gravity and pushing the limits of what the body is capable of fuel her never-ending curiosity and adoration of circus arts. Andi has been performing on aerial silks and hammock since 2016. Most recently, she performed ambient aerials at Indy 500 events in 2023 and 2024 and theatrical pieces for Arthur Murray Bloomington in 2024 and 2025. 

In 2024, Andi completed Paper Doll Militia’s Level 1 Silks Instructor training. Andi infuses artistic expression and play into her teaching. She finds great joy in guiding new aerialists into an aerial practice that honors their body and life experiences.
