Meet The Coaches

FGC Artistic Director and Head Coach Jonathon Roitman is a professional circus performer and coach.

Madeline (Maddie) Williams has been in the air for so long that gravity feels more like a suggestion than a rule.

Vivian began her circus journey in 2015, at Pendulum Aerial Arts in Portland Oregon.

Madison Ward is a multidisciplinary artist from Austin, Texas. Her extensive work across mediums such as circus, dance, film, and visual arts reflects a career focused on experimentation and collaboration.

Riley is the Assistant Director for FGC's Green Troupe, and a FGC Indigo trouper focusing mainly on Lyra but loves handstands, club passing and just about anything circus has to offer.

Flying Gravity Circus and Silver Lining Circus Camp Founder, and Clown Coach

Amaya started her career doing something very responsible (???) as a gymnastics coach for three years, before spiraling—gracefully—into coaching high school competition and sideline cheerleading camps, and eventually dance.

Quinn McKibben is a multi faceted circus artist and coach. He specializes in juggling and acrobatics and coaches a wide range of circus disciplines.
