Alex Miller

Circus artist

Alex Miller is a Montreal-based circus artist specializing in aerial straps.

She discovered circus and aerial arts at 29 after seeing a performance that deeply moved her. Inspired by performing arts’ ability to create shared experiences and connect with audiences, she immediately knew she wanted to pursue it. With no formal training background, she spent her first year working intensively with coaches such as William Bonnet and Victor Fomine before continuing to develop her technique independently.

Beyond technique, her performances center on connection. She values the raw, unspoken dialogue that can exist between performer and audience—an exchange that invites spectators to feel, reflect, and see themselves in her work. Whether evoking power or fragility, she strives to create performances that resonate on an emotional level.
