Riot Circus Arts owner, Kayla Dyches, works out on an ariel ring at her new business on Main Street in Plymouth, where she provides circus training. Dyches formerly suffered from anorexia as a gymnast in her late teens and early 20s and the circus "saved her life."Mark Morancv10dychesp4

MARK MORAN / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER Riot Circus Arts owner, Kayla Dyches, works out on an ariel silk at her business on Main Street in Plymouth, where she provides training, health, fitness and event services.

Kayla Dyches, who can climb more than 40 feet on aerial silks, says becoming a circus arts performer saved her life.

Dyches, 33, suffered from anorexia as a gymnast in her late teens and early 20s and, at her lightest, she weighed 90 pounds.

When she wanted to become an aerialist years ago, her trainers told her she needed to eat and take care of herself to be strong enough to do it.

This was enough inspiration for me to actually change my eating habits and get stronger and get out of that rut so that I could actually excel here, Dyches said.

Dyches, who is formerly from Alabama and now lives in Wyoming, recently opened Riot Circus Arts in a former Methodist church at 236 W. Main St., Plymouth. She moved the business from its former location on Rutter Avenue in Kingston.

Riot Circus Arts offers training, health, fitness and event services.

Some people take classes as a hobby or to become more physically fit and some are interested in a career in circus arts, she said.

We fit everyones needs, Dyches said. Whether youre trying to get in shape or if youre looking to get a job on a cruise ship or get a job in a show, well help you get there.

While the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus has come to an end after a run of 146 years, she said there are several other opportunities for performers such as Cirque du Soleil and Cirque loize.

Jobs are available for circus acts on cruise ships, and at casinos, hotels, theme parks and festivals around the world.

You have so many shows and options all over the world, Dyches said. Ive been offered contracts in Monaco and Dubai and casinos. There is work, but you have to actually do the work and get to a certain level to excel and get to those positions.

Riot Circus Arts is unique in the area and Dyches was attracted to the Plymouth building because of its high ceilings.

Our ceilings here are 42 feet and Ill climb as high as you want me to go, said Dyches, who also showed stunts she could do on an aerial ring. The great thing about old churches is no one really has a use for vertical space but I do.

Classes at Riot Circus Arts range from the beginner level to advanced, with guest instructors from all over the world, Dyches said.

The classes allow students to learn about everything from aerial silks and aerial rings to flexibility contortion. The business also offers standard fitness classes and Mommy and me classes.

The building also can be rented for events such as birthday parties and bachelorette parties, she said.

Some students have been taking classes for a few years and she recently began training younger girls with dance backgrounds who are interested in careers in the circus arts, she said.

Im trying to fill classes and bring a legit circus training facility to the area, she said.

Plymouth Alive, a group which promotes the borough and tries to bring businesses to the downtown area, recently welcomed Riot Circus Arts to town.

Its an added benefit that a specialty business like this can utilize the high ceilings in a church that would otherwise remain empty, said Plymouth Alive member Scott Cannon. Weve had a good amount of needed growth in the past year and are looking forward for more.
