Dragonfly Aerial Company

In 2001, years before there was Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube, Mistia Fallon began her aerial journey in Los Angeles.  In an LA gymnastics facility, after hours, and with a handful of artists from Cirque du Soleil, a lifelong love of an art that defied the laws of gravity and challenged the stereotypes of conventional dance was born.  Aerial Arts was a small industry then.  A lot has happened in the aerial industry over the past 20 years.  Now anyone can purchase a rig off of e-Bay and self-teach themselves from videos on Youtube, Instagram, or several online platforms that don’t accommodate, or vet, the student’s current physical capabilities before handing out skill pathways that can lead to serious injury.

At The Dragonfly Aerial Company, we know the responsibility we assume, in placing your precious cargo in our air space, and we don’t take that trust lightly.

At The Dragonfly Aerial Company, we bring in specialists in their field, to design and construct our structures while also continually educating our staff on how to continually make our program better and safer.

At The Dragonfly Aerial Company, we realize by assembling a team of expert-trained professionals and specialists, we can drastically mitigate the inherent safety risks that accompany aerial acrobatics.  Since witnessing, firsthand, poor and unsafe rigging, teaching and practices in multiple studios and gymnastic facilities, the Dragonfly Aerial Company created the nation’s premier safety-focused licensing program in 2017.

At The Dragonfly Aerial Company, it remains our mission to come alongside studios, from coast to coast, to assist in launching safe aerial programs while creating national safety standards and that that makes us better here at home.

The Dragonfly Aerial Company was the first aerial company to march into the USAG Nationals and create a round table discussion with the conservative insurance companies to fight for proper insurance options for aerial acrobatic programs in gymnastic facilities.  The USAG accepted the DAC as a professional member, recognizing us as a leader in the industry for our safety-focused aerial program.  It is this safety-focused program, and approach, which has since launched in 13 gyms to-date, nationally, providing guidance from rigging to detailed curriculum.

The Dragonfly Aerial Company is the culmination of over 20 years of experience in the professional aerial industry. We’ve been teaching flying longer than many other studio owners have been out of grade school and are honored that the Dragonfly Aerial Company has launched so many aerial careers locally, across the United States, and around the world.  We’ve done all of this while maintaining our little aerial school community atmosphere.
