A collaboration between Body Fitness Inc and JennuineFire blossomed into an eager and growing scene for the Aerial Arts in Peoria, Illinois. A community of flow artist, yogis, movers and shakers, Heart of Illinois Aerialist & Acrobats continues to be a stomping ground for the aerial arts.
JennuineFire began growing a program in Rolla, MO after andFLEW! Studios offered an opportunity to collaborate at andFLEW!'s downtown studio space. Located almost 2 hours from JF headquarters, instructors would travel up to 2 hours to Rolla, MO to bring the art of aerial dance and fitness to southern Missouri

Roots Classroom
In the beginning, JennuineFire (more recently, Root Elements) aimed to offer students the tools to be succesful. By establishing outreach programs, JF was able to bring dance, fitness and aerial arts instruction to multiple communities that otherwise would not have access to proper equipment or trained professionals.
Below you'll find links to collaborative efforts between communities and JennuineFire/Root Elements.
In 2012, owner Jenn Rauscher moved to St. Louis to a downtown art space where she planted her first seed in the aerial arts world, opening her downtown community space that offered weekly classes to her buildings tenants and friends.
St. Louis was JennuineFire's most dynamic climate for outreach education programs because the aerial and circus arts were well established in the area. It's downtown success was attributed to affordable cost and variety of classes and workshops with traveling professionals--and the view of downtown from the 8th floor wasn't so bad either!
