Anne Marjamäki
handstand / Finland /
She is 21 years old and has just graduated from the ESAC circus school in Brussels. She started at Sorin Sirkus in Tempere and at the age of 13 she chose handstand as her main discipline and believes it was the best decision in the world. She likes challenges, e.g. standing on one hand for over 2.5 minutes.
She has a twin sister who is also involved in the circus – aerial acrobatics on a tightrope.
She is messy and doesn’t like cooking. She likes knitting and crocheting, and she sewed her own stage costume. She and her sister want to live in a van they recently bought.
What she likes about the modern circus is that there are no rules and she is allowed to do whatever she wants and make people happy at the same time.
