a life upside down

This is me and what I do.
I´m a cradle catcher. My flyer is called Pauline.

It all started in Norsholm, Sweden around autumn 1986. I was a happy little girl with alot of energy so my parends took me to a youth circus called "Norsholm Ungdoms Cirkus". And there I started my carreer as a circus artist. It started with frontrolls and cartwheels.. during the years I did pyramidacrobatics, banquine, trapeze and so on. Pyramidacrobatics was my main speciality, we where 12 girls who travelled the world betwen -96 and -02 and did festivals and tent shows. We where called "Olana". 2002 we wanted to go further and leave the amateur level and try our luck as proffesional artists and started an own group called "Norrköping cirkus och varieté" but it didn´t work as I expected so I desided to leave Norrköping, my hometown, and try my luck as an artist somewhere else. Since I never worked alone i desided to do audition to Cirkus Cirkör, Cirkus Piloterna. Stockholm. To my big suprise they accepted me as a student so autumn 2003 I started my life on the way to become a proffesional artist. I was there for 2 years and was training circus full time. The first year I did pair acrobatics and the second I started with cradle. I graduated from there spring 2005. Unfortunately my situation in life made me leave my flyer and go to Brusseles.

So here I am. In my second circus school, E.S.A.C. Brusseles.
