Greetings, my name is Stoyan. I am a software engineer by day and a serious circus clown by night. I've been doing circus for just over ten years. I specialise in acrobatics and aerial straps, but also have a go at everything else: hulla hoop, unicycle, juggling (balls, scarves, clubs, rings and especially heavy kettlebells), passing, rolla bolla, cord, tissu, trapeze; just because it's fun. Recently I invented a new apparatus. I called it cloud straps. It's an amalgamation of aerial straps and cloud swing and allows me to perform the strength moves of the straps combined with the elegance of the static cloud swing.
I love circus: it keeps me sane, it has given me lots of great friends, a fiancée and it has allowed me to make lots of people laugh (slapstick is so much easier than having to point your toes).
I train at Cirkidz in Adelaide.
If you'd like to get in touch my email is sshopov at gmail dot com
Cheers.
