Andrew is a lifelong student & teacher of the movement arts, with a bachelors degree in Exercise Physiology from Waynesburg University. He has worked as a posture therapist, personal trainer, gym owner, and strength coach for numerous youth sports teams.
Andrew began his movement journey with juggling at 7 years old, then became a student of the martial arts in his teens. He became obsessed with acrobatics, and went on to pursue a career as a professional parkour athlete and cliff diver.
Fascinated with the full spectrum of movement arts, Andrew launched into the world of dance in his late twenties, and through it he rediscovered the simple joy of flow and rhythm that he had experienced as a child.
One day while playing with the Flow Rope (from Way of The Rope), Andrew felt a great rediscovery of familiar movement patterns from his youth, and the simple yet profound mind-body connection that it created.
He dove deep into the rope flow practice and ended up creating his own variation (The Bola Rope), combining inspiration from other flow arts like Poi, Rope Dart, and Double Meteor Hammer.
He then began teaching his new flow state movement method (Bola Flow) at local schools and festivals.
