--------- Special Note ----------

In 2002, Judith FLEX Helle had the idea to create a full length aerial ballet to the music of Led Zeppelin. Produced with her partner, and LedZAerial's business manager Joel Feingold, this was premiered at the Key Club on Sunset Blvd, in 2003, and a video was sent off to Robert Plant’s management in the UK. They sent it to Jimmy Page, who was very enthusiastic, and in 2005, the team took a meeting in London, with Judith FLEX Helle, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and their management. Their legal team informed us it was the first meeting they’d taken with an outside artist in their 35 years of rock reign! Another part of the ballet was created, hosted again at the Key Club, and Jimmy Page and Robert Plant flew in to attend! They enjoyed their “LedZAerial Ballet” very much, and we hope you will too, dear audience.
