I am an aerial contortionist in hoop, silk, hammock, and novelty apparatus. I have over five years performance experience including national tours, theatrical productions, cruise ship contracts, and national music festivals as well as corporate events and private parties. With an emphasis on musicality, grace, strength and flexibility, my lavish aerial acrobatics will lend an air of the decadent and exotic to any gathering, from black-tie dinners to eclectic garden parties. Drop me a line and let's make your event stand out above the rest!

December 11, 2015I've been working with Grace professionally for over a year now. She models frequently for a very popular life drawing event that I run in Denver. Time and time again our members continue to compliment her incredible skill and enjoyable demeanor. Her work is truly breathtaking, and we are in constant awe of how she can continuously hold dynamic poses for the artists in our group...it's actually a common occurrence when someone in the group calls out, "how does she do it?!"
Her hard work, dedication, professionalism, and love of what she does definitely stands out from the rest. I recommend her as an entertainer for any occasion. Spectacular work, Grace!!

November 26, 2015Grace was my model for a conceptual photo shoot I had been wanting to do for a long time. I was so pleased by my experience working with her - she managed to keep her energy, strength, and flexibility up for the full three hours that we worked together, and did everything I asked of her without complaint or hesitation. It was truly a collaborative effort - it was clear throughout the entire shoot that she was as eager and engaged in the final outcome as I was. I am very particular about whom I work with for these types of shoots and Grace surpassed my expectations. I look forward to our future work together!

November 20, 2015We booked Grace for our event as aerialist for her lollipop lyra. She delivered more then we ever could have hoped and expected. The crowed loved her and her performances, packing the room for each time. Her communication is always timely and was very professional all around. I plan on booking Grace again for future events we are having.

Languages: English, German
Gig length: 120 - 360 minutes
Insurance: $1,000,000 - Specialty Performance
Gorgeous ambient aerial performances for your event, with emphasis on strength, grace, and flexibility. I can work with almost any music style, live bands or djs, in almost any space. My style ranges from flashy and bold to elegant and subtle. I provide my own equipment, insurance, and a wide variety of my own costumes to suit any theme.
I also have a background in theater, and so I can integrate myself into stage productions. I am a deeply collaborative artist, and I love to work to bring directors' visions to life.
For festivals, I have high endurance and enthusiasm. I am happy to provide multiple sets up to fifteen minutes long throughout the event.
I also have a solid following on social media, and I always link back to the events and venues I work with.
My name is Grace Ramsey, and I am an experienced aerialist from Denver, Colorado. I started training in aerial silks when I was eighteen, and I have been performing all over Colorado since 2010. I have skills in aerial hoop, hammock, and a novelty apparatus called Lollipop Lyra, a fully portable, adjustable pole/hoop hybrid that is the only one of its kind in Colorado.
Before I discovered circus, I was an art student, studying drawing and painting. I have taken the lessons I've learned in tension, motion, drama, and wine quality into my performances. Aside from performing, I love to collaborate with photographers and visual artists in my community, lending my unique skills to bring their vision to life. I love to perform and create, and hope to continue to do so for the future.
For all aerial services (excluding lollipop), I need a mount point that can hold no less than 1000lbs of force, as well as access to the mount point (i.e. scissor lift, ladder, etc). During the performance, I need at least a 6' radius around my performance space so no one gets hit by flying fabric.
For aerial silk: Ceilings must be no lower than 20'
For aerial hammock or hoop: Ceilings must be no lower than 12'
For lollipop: Ceilings must be no lower than 9'
I usually come with my own assistant who helps me with rigging and set-up. If he can come to gigs, it is a huge help to me. I pay him out of my own pocket, so he will not cost more.
