Audacity Works

Episode 97: Making Art in the Extreme with Sasha Galitzki

Episode 97

And now for something completely different, talking to aerialist and adventure athlete, the fabulous and Audacious Sasha Galitzki!  Sasha uses photography and videography to document her work in what is to me, the most unimaginable of places including FREAKIN GLACIERS, Y'ALL!!

What you'll hear:

  • The Audacity Project Cycle 27 launches to the public on Monday, September 9th!  My email list is the best way to hear about it, also I write excellent emails, just sayin. 
  • How she got into performing in -15 degree temperatures in jaw-droppingly gorgeous environments
  • No but like seriously how tf is this happening and how is she rigging from ice?!
  • Here is the non-optional image that you absolutely have to see, prepare yourselves.  Photo by Kris Andres
  • The added dance of being warm, but not warm enough to sweat because then you can literally freeze inside your clothes omg how is this happening
  • Why "flow" is not a way to approach doing aerial work in these extreme conditions.
  • How we finally met IRL even though we've known each other through The Audacity Project for years.
  • Shout out to rigger spouse Marcus making up the other half of the dream team
  • Niching down harder than anyone has ever niched before, and the shadow side of accomplishing something extraordinary. 
  • How she has witnessed climate change in the most unavoidable, personal ways possible, and her advice for what us as individuals can do to address it locally.
  • All about Wild Aerial, the film and the process of making it.
  • Elk poop. :)
  • How she as a fellow introvert approached visibility using a PR agent and a voice coach (I love this!) and you can see her TV interview here!


You can follow Sasha's shenanigans (and I'd recommend it) here on her personal Instagram, and follow the film on the official Wild Aerial Instagram page.
