Who We Are
Johann Prinz
Born in Germany, Johann discovered his passion for movement through artistic gymnastics. At the age of 16, he moved to Berlin to study at the prestigious State School of Acrobatic Arts (Staatliche Artistenschule Berlin). There, he focused on aerial straps, combining strength, fluidity, and narrative expression. He graduated in 2019 and has since performed across Europe.
Katharina Waigmann
Originally from Austria, Katharina began her journey in acrosports before turning to the circus arts at age 20. Her path led her to Montreal, where she trained under Victor Fomine, one of the most respected aerial coaches in the world. Through her training she developed her signature style—elegant, precise, and authentic.
