Rigging & Production Assistant & Coaching Staff
Layton Hahs
Layton (they/he) started their circus career as a child climbing around on things that they probably shouldn’t have. They moved on to leading their college aerialist club, before coming to Vermont to join NECCA’s ProTrack program, which they graduated in 2023 with a major in aerial sling and a minor in Chinese pole. They were excited to return to NECCA as our Rigging & Production Assistant where they have a thousand excuses to play with carabiners, shackles, swivels, ropes, and other equipment.
When not at NECCA, Layton can be found performing pole and aerial acts at local shows and festivals, collecting tiny objects, and tying bowlines in the strings of all his partners’ hoodies.
