Sharyn Scott
Sharyn hails from the small town of Erial, NJ. (pronounced aerial) It makes sense that she would later live up to her hometown namesake to become an Aerialist. As a child, Sharyn spent 10 years as a competitive cheerleader, where she first learned to defy gravity through tumbling and stunting. While studying Finance at Rowan University she lost touch with her acrobatic side until she was introduced to pole dancing in 2007. Sharyn began studying Aerial Arts at the Philadelphia Circus School in 2011. She became enamored with the thrill of captivating and inspiring an audience so she moved to Los Angeles in 2014 to chase her dreams of performing.
In true circus form, Sharyn’s expertise is an eclectic mix; she is an aerialist, pole dancer, fire dancer, roller skater and tamer of cat (her kitten Luna). Her love for movement continues to drive her to learn new skills and to push the limits of what can be created.
Sharyn’s film credits include: Bird’s of Prey, JoJo Siwa, TikTok, and Facebook. She has performed at music events: Coachella, LiB, Same Same but Different and Desert Daze. Sharyn’s teaching certifications include: NASM Personal Trainer, NESTA Biomechanics Specialist, ElevatED Pole, Soulwork Trauma Informed Yoga and Circasana Yoga Alliance RYT 200. She has been teaching and performing for over 10 years.

Priscilla Somogie
Born and raised on the east coast in a small town on the border of NH and MA, Priscilla began her love for flying when she started gymnastics at the late age of 13. She was so passionate about this that she quickly began competing and coaching a year later. It wasn’t until she was living in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2015 when she discovered Pole Dance and Aerial and she immediately fell in love. After becoming an Xpert Certified Pole Dance instructor in 2018, Priscilla made the leap to move to LA from Miami where her career as a full time instructor and competitor continued and her performance career began.
She now resides in Los Angeles, CA and teaches regularly at Sadies Pole Studio, The Vertitude LA, and privately. Amidst the Covid epidemic of 2020, Priscilla began diving into the world of fire dancing and has since added it to her performance repertoire. At the beginning of 2021, Priscilla became a NASM certified personal trainer and in March of 2022 she became a certified Yoga Instructor.
Priscilla performs regularly with the world famous DJ, Diplo, as well as a number of different residencies such as Mainro Hollywood (aerial), La Conde Restaurant (fire), La Mesa Lounge (fire), and many more. She specializes in Pole Dance, Aerial Silks, Lyra, Aerial Hammock, Flying Pole, Fire Dancing, Flexibility, Yoga and Acrobatics.
Lyssa Morgan
Born and raised in a small Northern California town, Lyssa’s aerial journey began when she moved down to Los Angeles. In true Gemini fashion, Lyssa has two important facets in life, science and circus arts.
She is currently a PhD student at UC Irvine studying bioremediation in the Civil and Environmental Engineering department. In addition, Lyssa performs fire and aerial in the Los Angeles area. She loves the freedom of expression that circus arts allows and loves performing at shows and festivals. Lyssa specializes in an eclectic mix of arts, and is proud to call herself an aerialist, pole dancer, fire dancer, and bendy straw.

Megan Bautista
Born and raised in South Bay California, Megan grew up trying different dance genres from jazz, to hula, hip hop, and songs cheerleading til about high school. She then took a break from performing and dance training to pursue her business degree at Cal State Fullerton.
After she graduated in 2018, she stepped back into the world of movement but this time with an aerial twist. She found her love for aerial hammock and worked diligently to hone her craft and started performing at the local aerial student showcases. This lead to her eventual introduction to performing professionally on large stages at festivals for Insomniac events to small private events. When she’s not performing she is instructing weekly aerial classes at Sadie’s Pole Studio or taking up yoga classes. Her skills vary from aerial arts, ambient fire dancing, gogo dance, and beyond!
Sarah Yamamoto
Just a Hawaii girl, who made the big leap to Los Angeles for an education in engineering. She still managed to train her creative side with various dance styles while growing up. In 2013, Sarah was introduced to the world of pole dance during her search for aerial silks classes. While her contemporary dance training proved to be beneficial to aerial and pole dance, she still was challenged with a whole new realm of strength and flexibility. With these high-flying addictions, she has embraced a new perspective and respect for an underground community. Sarah has competed in various PSO competitions and performed throughout the years for pole dance.
While an injury and life balances, she found her passion within which is teaching. She wanted to inspire others as her instructors had done for her. With the enjoyment of performing, instructing and learning, she has faced an unexpected personal leave and has best to support Cirque Lunaire as they shoot above the moon.
