Hi, I’m Elle Wayne Ballard, aka Elle Eclectica, and I’m an aerialist, burlesque dancer, and performance artist based in Orlando, Florida. I have taught and performed aerial silks, static trapeze, dance trapeze, and lyra aka aerial hoop.

Behind every performance is years of intensive training, hours of costume construction, and gallons of sweat and tears. The best way to support local artists is to attend local shows — see my Flowpage for the latest details.

Aerial Coaching Development

Teaching aerial dance to aspiring acrobats and seeing this new light emerge in their hearts is one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I strive to be a body-positive circus coach who empowers both kids and adults to find their inner strength.

A geek at heart and a devoted student of movement, I am also developing a comprehensive aerial dictionary, training workbooks, and creative coaching materials for artist-athletes.

Recovery from Repetitive Strain Injury and Torn Tendon

Several years ago, I experienced a severe tear in my distal triceps tendon. I also developed a Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI) in both arms, which hindered my training. My RSI has continued to be a challenge, especially for aerial dance and acrobatics.

By supporting me on Buy Me a Coffee, you will help me achieve my performance and training goals, and as a thank you, you’ll gain access to my acroburly fitness routines, behind-the scenes clips, exclusive performance videos, and a first peek at workbooks and the aerial dictionary.
