Help Savannah GA Aerialist Emily Compete Overseas

My name is Emily Daniels and I’m native to Savannah, GA. This past year has been a wild ride due to COVID but with valleys, there are peaks. This past year, I competed in a national competition organized by the United States Pole Sports Federation. I competed in both aerial silks and pole sport and was fortunate to place 2nd in both categories in my division! This past September, I once again competed in the National competitions and took home one gold and one silver medal! 

I’m thrilled to have made the top 3 and been invited to compete internationally as a member of TEAM USA! 

The Pole Sport Worlds competition has officially been announced and will take place in Italy this December! Aerial worlds is expected to happen in 2022. These competitions come with a lot of hard work and funding, and I want to make sure I’m well prepared. As a working class adult, I could really use some help. I would love to represent my country AND Savannah with strength, passion, determination and pride! 

I have big dreams to make a name for myself in the performing arts industry. To be one of the first to compete in Aerial Worlds and one of the first to compete in the Amateur Worlds Pole Sport division is a HUGE milestone as a survivor of Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). With your help, I believe I can get there. 

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate everyone’s love, support and encouragement since I started training in this art form/sport. I wouldn’t be where I am on my own! 

With passion and gratitude, I thank you!
