History

Established in 2012.

FLY WITH ME is an aerial fitness training studio located in Toronto. Founded by Diane McGrath Lokos in September 2012, it began with two trapeze classes in a small rented Sterling Road studio that was made available by a group of 4 female dancers who formed a group called the Collective Space.

By the Fall of 2013, The Collective Space was growing and they invited Diane to join the group as they moved to larger space that offered 1000 square feet with a proper dance sprung floor.

In 2015 Fly With Me has grown again moving to it’s own location –163 Sterling rd unit 113. Now offering 9 different classes and has held 3 successful recitals showcasing student’s performances. 2^nd studio near Roncesvalles for private classes.

Business Owner

Diane is an aerial performance artist. As an accomplished childhood figure skater, she continued this athletic journey by taking these skills into the world of aerial performing. Her unique charisma and expressiveness highlight her acrobatic skills beautifully.

Almost derailed with a shoulder injury, Diane was supported and encouraged by friends and mentors to continue with her passion for aerial arts. While healing and rebuilding her strength she shifted her focus to choreography and teaching others. This was the genesis of Fly With Me as Diane created aerial classes for women and men ages 35 and beyond.

Diane has performed for seventeen years as an aerialist with Dilorus Productions, Vertical Travelers, ZeroGravity, Gravity Works.

Diane’s favourite quote:

«Iron rusts from disuse; stagnant water loses its purity and in cold weather becomes frozen; even so does inaction sap the vigour of the mind.» Leonardo Da Vinci.
