Zoë Isadora (Wellesley College, ‘22) is a third-generation aerial artist and coach. She grew up performing alongside her mother, Melinda Melina Pavlata (2nd generation belly dancer and circus artist) and her step-father Alexandre Sacha Pavlata (5th generation Czech circus artist).

Since her first appearance in the ring at 9 months old, Zoë has performed with The Flying Wallendas, Westchester Circus Arts, Cirque Dreams, Airotic Soirée, Les Farfadais and in various productions around the world!

Zoë is also head aerial coach and manager of her family’s circus school Moody Street Circus. She has travelled to coach her workshops in Florida, Texas, New Hampshire, Greece and beyond!

Through a unique performance upbringing, Zoë now imbues the spirit of the circus world in her own aerial feats through graceful flows and seamless dancing with any apparatus. Her work is strong, elegant and enchanting.
