Quynbi Ada — Instructor: Beginning Silk
Originally from Los Angeles, Quynbi is a Seattle-based aerialist, dancer, model, multimedia visual artist and licensed skydiver. She has performed her sensuous aerial silks acts at notable venues such as Teatro ZinZanni's Mezzo Lunatico, the Moisture Festival, the Moore Theater Centennial, the Seattle Art Museum Opening with UMO Ensemble, the Seattle Opera House, Circus of Dreams, the Seattle Erotic Arts Festival, and the Global Party with Emerald City Trapeze. Her distinctive aesthetic sense merges grace, beauty and strength with technical precision and a dark edge.
Quynbi began dancing at age three, and has studied ballet, modern, contact improvisation and gymnastics. She discovered the exciting world of aerial dance while living in New York in 2001, where she studied low-flying trapeze with Julie Ludwick of Fly-By-Night Dance Theater. After relocating to Seattle, she continued with Nathan Dryden using Skinner Releasing Technique. She fell in love with her chosen apparatus, aerial silks, after working privately with Esther Edleman of UMO Ensemble. She also studied intensively under Kari Podgorski of Circus Contraption and the Aerialistas at SANCA's Professional Aerial Training Program.
Quynbi hopes to inspire the same passion and dedication to her aerial students as her teachers did for her.
