Jenna Kotlyarenko

Jenna (they/them) fell in love with circus after taking a mixed aerials class in 2024. As a student, they've loved getting to try a mix of all things circus, including fabric, trapeze, tumbling, and juggling. They have worked with children for most of their life, from babysitting, to teaching preschool, to their current job as an adolescent therapist. After taking some classes at Show, they realized how fun it would be to get to teach this to kids and began working to become a coach. They bring their love and enthusiasm for working with children into their classes, always trying to find new ways to make circus engaging and fun for all students. Outside of circus, they enjoy spending time with their cat, crocheting, embroidery, and muay thai.
