Cedra Hawke is an acrobat and aerialist who got her start in circus arts in a very peculiar way.  Starting with a mission trip to Paraguay, followed by a community program for poor Brazilians and a circus club at the University of Sydney in Australia, Cedra finally found her way to the Imperial OPA Circus in 2013. After taking a quick break due to a broken leg (a tragic mini-golf accident), she dove head-first into OPA activities and soon became one of the most enthusiastic members, performing in dozens of shows each year. Cedra specializes primarily in partner and group acrobatics, but also enjoys lyra, aerial sling and dance.
