Annette Swamp, owner of the fly factory, lived the first part of her life as a young wife, an educational counselor, and then a stay at home mom.

“Her passion for aerial fitness came later in life proving the statement true, it’s never too late to live your dream,” said a press release from the studio.

Swamp fell in love with aerial hoop/lyra after just one class and she became a certified instructor shortly thereafter. She went on to train in acro, pole fitness, aerial hammock, and then took the leap to open her first aerial fitnesss studio.

She also achieved teaching certifications in pole fitness, aerial hammock, RYT 200, and assisted Thai yoga.

The Fly Factory offers regular adult and kids aerial classes Sunday through Thursday.
