Our Story
Rise Aerial Academy was founded by longtime professional dancer and aerialist, Meg Watson. After spending most of her life performing and teaching others, at the end of 2019, Meg decided it was time to take the leap and open a space that was entirely her own. So, after lots of careful planning and about a million coffees, Rise Aerial Academy was born and opened its doors in January 2020.
​
Now, only a few years later, the studio has over 200 members aged from 3-60, and is proud to be one of the largest aerial academies in Australia.
