Hazel successfully auditioned for and is now currently studying circus arts at FLIC in Italy. We look forward to her return to the UK.
Duncan
Duncan achieved a 2:1 in biomedical science, specialising in neuroscience, from the University of Sheffield in 2008. From his studies and from previous work as a sailing instructor, Duncan developed an interest in teaching and the process by which we learn physical skills. He subsequently began volunteering with Swamp Circus Trust and undertook a full time program of circus training at Greentop Circus Centre, with the aim of becoming a circus tutor.
Duncan is now a full time circus tutor and performer. He has been juggling for over fourteen years, plays unicycle hockey for Sheffield and specialises in acrobalance and doubles trapeze.
All our workshop tutors and artists are CRB checked and have public liability insurance.
