A Women’s Collective for Modern Fly Fishing Education

Our Approach & Philosophy

History & Tradition

We recognize the rich history that shaped our sport and continue to honor the classic techniques, stories, and teachers who built the foundation for all of us. At Aquila, tradition is not something we preserve from a distance. It is something we actively include and carry forward through thoughtful, skillful instruction.

Contemporary Updates

Fly fishing is always evolving, and so are we. Our curriculum brings together the best of modern innovation with a new, collaborative way of teaching that reflects how anglers learn today. We are excited to share more about our teaching philosophy, our methods, and the fresh perspective we bring to technical education and on-water experience..

Approachable Spaces

We take education seriously, but we keep the atmosphere warm, supportive, and grounded in joy. Aquila is a place where women can learn, practice, and explore without pressure or pretense. Whether you are casting for the first time or refining advanced skills, you will find a community that welcomes curiosity, growth, and connection.

Meet Our Team of Educators

Aquila is built on the collective strength and knowledge of women who teach, guide, innovate, and inspire. Our programs bring together experts from across the fly fishing world, each contributing their own perspective and area of mastery. Follow along as we introduce our growing team and share the diverse experience and perspectives that shapes our academy. Subscribe to our newsletter for new team member announcements!
