Today, Dahlia maintains she is an Opossum, Wednesday continues to out-fox us all, Sofia is still in long-legged flamingo form, and of course our Boss Babe Katia maintains her powerful stance as our Lioness. But times change, and our cheeky cherub, Maddie Belle (previously a wedge-tailed eagle), now identifies more with a Quokka. We understand completely, Maddie. 

Lily Rose is full of poise, playfulness and she adores the water. When not at Sky Sirens, she can be found frolicking on beaches and lapping up sunshine and saltwater. Lily’s gorgeous smile makes everyone’s day and if you’ve seen her on any apparatus, she seems to glide effortlessly with grace. If you’ve had Lily as an instructor, you also know that her joyful nature is accompanied by keen intelligence and empathy. She can tell you several ways to make that tricky move work for you, while guiding with gentle encouragement.  

Our Rock n’ Roll goddess is totally fierce and fearless, so it makes sense that she would be our eagle. Eagles are high flyers and Ferri pushes herself constantly to be the best she can possibly be. She has confidence, strength and tenacity, and like the eagle, she nurtures the younger members of her flock to grow in the same strong spirit. Eagles are amazing leaders. They are powerful, creative and uniquely minded and we see all of those qualities in all of Ferri’s attitude-laden routines. 

Graceful and sweet. Energetic and elegant. And expert flyers. Kittyhawk is the perfect sugar glider. Like gliders, who love to climb and are very active, Kittyhawk has devoted her life to aerials. She spends every spare moment flying and crafting her artistry in the air. Although she works tirelessly, she makes the act of flying look effortless, inspiring others to find a love of aerials themselves. Gliding life for Kittyhawk isn’t lonely. Far from being an aloof aerialist, she is much like the sugar glider who is affectionate and loves company. Like these gorgeous marsupials, Kittyhawk is also a ground dweller and can dance up a storm. But her true beauty and awe is captured when she is in the air. 

The stunning Elixir Black considered a number of creatures, including horse (she is a former dressage rider), racoon and even ‘trash panda’. But seeing Elixir in all her dark glory, we couldn’t go past the bat. Like bats, Elixir is positively bewitching, with a passion for dark glamour and gothic sensuality like a creature of the night. Bats are powered by muscular movement when in flight, which is so evident if you’ve seen her back bends and apparatus work! Bats are also surprising. Underneath the dark cloak, they are utterly endearing. Elixir is friendly, funny, warm and supportive. Her sparkling creativity and zest for life are infectious. 

Allegra exudes fluidity and grace, as she twists and turns her elongated limbs on the ground and in the air. With her porcelain skin and flexibility, Allegra’s movements find ease in aerials, dance and burlesque. Like the swan, she is enchanting to watch and she moves from ground to air with ease. Allegra loves teaching aerials and can be protective of her small ones, encouraging them to become majestic creatures themselves. Whether performing, teaching or just hanging out, Allegra seems to glide from one world to another, always ready to take flight. 

Our Accessibility and Inclusion coordinator told us that they just want to be covered in moss and chilling in water like a Capybara!  But this charming animal is as surprising and captivating as Maya. Capybaras have hidden talents and tricks, like being able to hold their breath underwater for 5 mins. While Maya can’t do that, they do an endless number of things that are very impressive. Their strength and fluidity of transitions in aerials are impressive. The leadership and ingenuity they apply to their role at Sky Sirens has us constantly in awe. Like Capybaras, they are smart and resourceful, while constantly looking stunningly and stylishly regal! If you want to know more about Capybaras, Maya is the person to ask. They are completing a degree in Wildlife Conversation and would love to work with Capybaras in the future. 

With her classic doe eyes and passion for feathered burlesque props, this might come as a surprise. But the gorgeous Suzy tells us she is a small version of a larger animal. Wallabies are cute, shy and hard to find, but very friendly once you get to know them. Wallabies are also tough for their size, and if you’ve seen Suzy twirling fans or performing on stage, you’ll know this to be true. Like a wallaby who can jump in any direction at any given time, Suzy has a multitude of skills from costume designing, to performing, and now teaching, which she gleefully shares with her Sky Sirens community. 

Our exquisite dancer, aerialist and floorwork queen could only be a peacock. Quench says ‘they’re plain at first’, but there’s nothing plain about her at all. Quench’s inner and outer beauty is always on display, not only when she dances or teaches, but also in her general interactions, as she’s always glowing. Peacocks are expressive in nature, social and energetic. While peacocks love to be the centre of attention, they’re far from arrogant because they generously give that charisma to all those around them. We have seen Quench do all of this and more. Quench adds that she has strong legs like a peacock because of her dance background, and the many eyes represent the awareness of her environment and herself. She also has an dazzling collection of costumes!

One of our newest Sirens of the House, Blanche, describes herself as a snowy-white tiny predator, making her the perfect Ermine. Ermines are also luxurious and associated with opulence and royalty, much like our Blanche. While being absolutely adorable, Ermines are strong and fierce and should not be underestimated. Blanche’s dance and aerials background make her a wonderful addition to the Sky Sirens team. You’ll see Blanche on the Sirens desk in all her fashionable splendour, peaking out as ermines love to do.
