Celebrate Arts in April with Marz Aerial!


Marz Aerial News

This April at Marz Aerial Arts & Fitness
(and all around New Bern!)

If you thought March was busy - we've got news for you! Our schedule is absolutely packed in April (and beyond) with performances, workshops, celebrations, and all kinds of fun events. We can't even begin to express how excited our team is to share everything with you.

I've also got some HUGE news... This Friday, April 4th, is my last day with two jobs. I have resigned from my position of Material Flow Engineer at Moen here in New Bern and I am so excited to be able to not only spend more time on our studio's programming and development, but to have more hours to dedicate to my own training and my involvement in our local community. I have a million things on my to-do list and in mind, but if you have any suggestions, requests, or ideas for daytime offerings, circus clubs at schools, or other opportunities, please do not hesitate to reach out to me! I am so proud that our programming and classes are built around our community.

Obviously I wouldn't be here without the support of every one of our members, students, performers, instructors, competitors, supporters outside of the studio, and of course, my family. I am so thankful to you all for every kind word, review, like and share, and your time.
