Fred Deb is a French aerialist who performs aerial fabric/silks and hoop. She studied at the French National Circus Arts Centre of Châlons en champagne and graduated in 1992. She was one of first artists to investigate these aerial disciplines.

A leading member of the French ‘Nouveau Cirque' movement, she has toured for several years with the French aerial arts company: LES ARTS SAUTS. She teaches aerial fabric/silks workshops regularly in France, USA and Japan. She has worked with a great variety of students, from professional to beginners and from adults to children. http://www.drapes-aeriens.com
