AKMASTILCHINO1
Winning Couple!
She was born in Spain and after 10 years training in rhythmic gymnastics she went study to University “Inefc” in Lleida with BA (Hons) In Physical Education and Sport.
During those university years, she has also been training professionally on German wheel, Sports Acrobatics and Contemporary Dance.
She studied at Circus Space in London from where she graduated in 2008.
Since graduation she has begun to explore ways in which she can incorporate contemporary dance and floor-based movement into the Chinese Pole work, blurring the distinction between both to create a fluid, coherent and original performance style.
Human feelings are the main inspiration in her work. Trying to find a way to say how she think and feel through circus is challenging and inspiring.
Her aim is to draw the audience beyond the first-glance appreciation of the circus tricks and allow them to identify with the motivation and meaning beneath.
Her work has been seen at venues and festivals around the world, including China, Panama City, Denmark, Belgium, Germany, Uk, Portugal and Spain.
