Originally from Tucson Arizona, Aurelia trained in Classical Ballet, Folk Dance , and Theater in her youth. Her grandmother, Stephanie Stigers Varon, a celebrated ballerina began her granddaughters training at age 3. Moving to the Navajo reservation at age 8 and then down to the boarder of Mexico at 11 caused her life view to diversify at an early age. At 14 years old, she discovered the aerial arts, joining a dance company as the youngest performing member and soon entered the world of professional physical theater, spectacle and circus arts. She began traveling, teaching, and performing internationally in 2006 and hasn’t stopped. Having learned the structure and discipline of ballet early on, she was drawn to alternative movement methods as a way to process grief, joy, fear and the wide array of human experiences and emotions. The practice of channeling reality through the filter of living art is her medium.
She works with North Americas Premier Pyrotechnic Theater Troupe, Flam Chen as a principle performer, choreographer and director and for the non–profit, Many Mouths One Stomach. She also helped develop the Tucson Circus Arts Aerial program. In 2010 she met Jason Dea West, she embraced her long standing desire to learn an instrument to accompany her songwriting and they have made music and toured extensively with Jason Dea West as Intuitive Compass . She has worked as a principle performer with The Carpetbag Brigade and as an aerialist, dancer and designer with Anatomia Dance Collective and Shadow Tender as an assistant director/costume designer and choreographer. Shadow Tender was presented in the 2017 World Stage Design Festival in Taipei.
