Mazzy Rose began her aerial journey in 2018 after being inspired by performances from Circus Bacchus and Dark Sky Aerial. She began training on silks at Momentum Aerial before taking a break from that apparatus to build strength on lyra. When she returned to silks, corde lisse seemed like a natural evolution to add to her training. She loves the feelings of freedom and empowerment that come with exploring the aerial arts.

Walker Eaton
Holistic Fitness Fusion Training Coach
"My name is Walker Eaton, I am the creator of Holistic Fitness Fusion and the coach of the Holistic Training Team. From an early age I knew that health and fitness would be my life’s passion. Over the years I have practiced many modalities and athletic pursuits, including Pilates, Gymnastics, Yoga, Track and Field, Endurance Running and Biking, Body Building, CrossFit, Rock Climbing, Slacklining, Meditation, and more. All of these ventures shared a few common goals; optimizing my athletic performance, pushing myself out of my comfort zone, and, of course, enjoyment and the pursuit of happiness. As a coach and personal trainer of over 12 years, I have focused on primarily corrective exercise, injury prevention, functional training, athletic performance, and holistic health, with longevity as our umbrella. I have always been obsessed with the idea of developing incredible athleticism through training that is predominantly focused on injury prevention so that I can do the things I love at a high level with less chance of injury.
Fundamentally, this is what I believe everyone wants in their own bodies: incredible ability and function without pain. This all brought me to create Holistic Fitness Fusion, a cohesive blend of everything I have learned through my broad spectrum of passions distilled down to the very best movements and organized into well-programmed routines.
Holistic Fitness Fusion is my attempt to fuse the very best ideologies from all of these modalities into optimized training routines that are all-encompassing yet minimalistic so that we can achieve a balanced life of longevity and performance in all areas. I am certain that helping and educating my family through health and fitness will be my life’s work — because that’s exactly what the Holistic Training Team is; a family."
