- Rinny, a fourth-generation circus artist, captures the attention of audiences with his balance and precision as he bends beyond the nature of human potential while climbing higher and higher in the air on an always-moving surface. Simon Cowell of “America’s Got Talent” called Rinny “the best rolla bolla act I have ever seen.”
- Shelander is trained in Mongolian Contortion and traveled to Mongolia to learn foot-archery, one of her most jaw-dropping specialties. She has performed around the world and appeared on “America's Got Talent,” “France's Got Incredible Talent,” and “Got Talent Chile” where she received the Golden Buzzer, the show’s highest honor.
- Noone is a versatile movement and hair suspension artists who performs on many different apparatuses. She is a four-time American Ninja Warrior, former competitive ballroom dancer, and independent circus performer. She is a member of the contemporary circus company, Cirque Vida, based in Austin, TX.
- Las Vegas resident Stoinev is a fifth-generation circus performer who started juggling at the age of five and hasn't stopped ever since. At eight years old, he was invited to perform at Premier Rampe, an International Circus Festival hosted in Monaco.
