ABOUT MYLES

Myles Hochman (they/he) began their circus arts journey in 2014, when aerial hoop expanded their life beyond being “a brain in a jar.” Building on strong technical foundations, they push to redefine the boundaries of what aerial hoop is and can be. More recently they’ve fallen in love with corde lisse and exploring its many pathways. They’re particularly fascinated by the use of momentum and gravity to punctuate and accentuate compelling stories. Myles’ solo work often focuses on LGBTQ narratives, grounded in both the rawly human and deeply fantastical. Whether it’s the complexities of queer joy in an inhospitable world or finding freedom in the archetype of the monstrous queer, they aim for their work to center emotional authenticity and speak to those who need it most. Myles feels grateful to have had opportunities to share their performances around the US as well as internationally.

​

When not in the air, Myles can be found reprising the role of “mad scientist” as a biochemist at a Bay Area biotech company, playing servant to two demanding cats, and knitting increasingly impractical garments.
