welcome!
Elevated Fitness began as blog dedicated to those on the quest for their best self. As the founder of Kalispell’s first aerial studio, I've always championed the transformative power of movement as a form of medicine. I believe movement is a key essential, along with a health-conscious diet and plentiful rest and restoration, to achieving your most empowered self.
In 2022, following the sale of the aerial studio I founded, I was met with enthusiasm from events and festivals I had previously collaborated with. They expressed a desire for me to continue enhancing their events with extraordinary aerial performances. This inspired the creation of Elevated Aerial—a collective uniting Flathead’s elite acrobats under one banner. Our mission is to transform events into extraordinary experiences, delivering unmatched energy, elegance, and professionalism. Find out about events here.
Although my main focus is performance, I do still teach a few impactful classes under the Elevated Fitness umbrella: High Aerial Silks and Interval Training Fitness.
I would be honored to hold space for you!
About

MEET MINDY
Hi! I am Mindy Cochran. I hold certifications in group fitness, personal training, nutrition coaching, and life coaching. I am a practitioner, teacher, and performer of aerial silks, aerial hammock, and aerial hoop, as well as a health columnist for Montana Woman Magazine. I proudly hold the title for first place soloist for Montana's first ever pole competition, finalist for Montana's Got Talent, and ambassador for Dragonfly Brand as well as Silverwind activewear. I have been training aerial arts for over a decade, performing at many music festivals and events across northwest United States, and alongside many renowned artists of the aerial world including the well-known Cirque Du Soleil. I began learning acrobatics at 33 years young with no former experience in dance or gymnastics, and I believe that aerial is movement medicine for all ages! My life's purpose is to inspire others on the pathway to their best selves. I am always here for you and promise to respect your challenges like they are my own, so please reach out about beginning the journey to your best self and highest potential!
