⭐Congratulations to Bailey Scherer (she/her), gr ⭐Congratulations to Bailey Scherer (she/her), graduating from ProTrack as a Baton Twirling Major and a Dance Trapeze minor!

Originally from ☀️Los Angeles, CA, Bailey's near future goals include performing at circus festivals. In the long-term, she looks forward to participating in work with a heavy focus on physical storytelling. She says, "I would also love to build circus programs for young children to help instill a healthy, holistic perspective on fitness, personal identity, and community building in our next generations."

🧁When not twirling a baton or spinning on the trapeze, you can find Bailey baking multitudes of muffins.

🎉Michelle Mazzarella (she/her) graduates from P 🎉Michelle Mazzarella (she/her) graduates from ProTrack with an Invented Apparatus major which combines aerial sling and single point trapeze, and a minor in Cyr Wheel. 

🎪Michelle's professional goals are to perform first, then dive into production, direction, and choreography for circus.  Calling San Juan island home, a fun fact about Michelle is that she was a dockhand at a marina resort for five years and can tie off a boat without bending over! ➰ As she dives into her career, Michelle will continue to cherish her time spent at NECCA, especially working with coaches Elsie Smith and Zeb Galipeau who are both in her words, the bomb.com.

✨Congratulations to 2022 ProTrack Grad Carina Ki ✨Congratulations to 2022 ProTrack Grad Carina Kivela (she/they), graduating as an Aerial Straps major and a Partner Acrobatics minor!

Originally from Livingston, Montana, Carina was struck by the community and environment at NECCA when they began their training in ProTrack. 🧡 About what's next and their circus goals Carina says, "I love performing, but really love creating with people I vibe with where ever that takes me. The goal is to meet people and to make some meaningful circus mischief," which they will be doing this summer in Bozeman, MT with 406 Cirque and Mountain Air Dance! 

➡️Carina loves connecting the world with circus and performing arts, so stay connected and follow them at @carina.gillet

Photo 2: Carina lies in a straddle on Elly's back, a pair of shorts on their foot.  They are both wearing tan top and shorts.]
