Hello!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u00b4m happy you have found your way to my website, welcome!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here you can get to know my work. I hope this visit brings a smile on your face!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Marianne is a circus artist from Finland. She graduated at the Art\u00b4s Academy of Turku University of Applied Sciences in 2019. She specialized in partner acrobatics and hula hoops \u2013 and soon after graduating, she fell in love with freestyle rope skipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marianne found the joy of circus and street performing while she was spending a gap year in Rome in 2007. Creating a street show has been her dream since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It took a while to actually make that dream true. When she was working as a producer\u00b4s assistant at a circus festival in 2011, she realized that she just wanted to be on stage. Marianne started to train acrobatics and work as a social circus instructor and finally applied to the circus school and got in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marianne started her performing career in 2017 at outdoor events. Very quickly, she noticed the excitement of performing on the streets as it is the most interesting and challenging stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today Marianne is based in Finland and is thrilled to travel abroad with her hula hoops and jump rope \u2013 ready to spread joy and playfulness with her street show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
