Peggy Ployhar is the Founder & CEO of SPED Homeschool, a nonprofit empowering thousands of families each year to home educate struggling learners. She is a 19 year veteran homeschooling mom of 3 unique learners and popular speaker on Christian, health, and special education homeschooling topics.

At the age of 48, Peggy started training on aerial silks and has been doing so almost daily for over 5 years, minus the 6 months she battled breast cancer in 2020.

Now having reached an advanced level, she shares her passion for this aerial art as a performer and the owner of Eternal Aerial Arts & Academy.
