TOGETHER AS ONE
Competing for our countries in Artistic Gymnastics required us to be at the highest elite level, however, had limitations. Routines are performed within the restrictions of the sports code and requirements that are solely acrobatic. Transitioning into artists in circus has opened the doors for acting, character building, physical expression and emotion. We have thrived off being more than just athletes. Using the base and foundation of gymnastics has given us the unique opportunity of creating more beyond the scopes of the sport.
We thrive to captivate audiences with the passion and fire that motivates us everyday. We are excited to bring the light of live entertainment back to audiences again after such a dark year due to Covid-19.
