HULA HOOPS - Inferno Ash specialises in multi hoops incorporating flexibility, acrobatics and interaction whenever possible. She loves creating shows and in 2018 she toured her show 'Back to the Hoopture', an interactive workshop style show on the history of hula hoops. She has performed and taught as a hula hooper around the world in her street shows and at festivals and corporate events. The former 2 x Guinness World Record hula hoop champion's specialisation with hula hoops is creativity - how can we use hula hoops to create something unique for our audiences? She has multi hoop acts with fire and LED.
STILTS - Inferno Ash is a strong, experienced and confident stilt walker who would walk 500 miles to share her interactive characters with you. Her background in theatre (physical and improv) allows her to adapt to any character she is portraying, and her rapidly increasing wardobe of costumes means she can conjure up all sorts of delights to suit your events.
CLOWN - For Ash, the studying of clown is the studying of life. She has developed most as a performer and an individual through her clown studies that she has pursued since 2013. She incorporates clown and comedy into most of her acts and she believes that the interaction and 'liveness' of clown is what makes her shows special. She strongly believes in clown for social and political change and in 2016 she participated in a 'clowns with borders' project in Slovenia (more here).
She has learnt from Philippe Gaulier, Mick Barnfather, Holly Stoppit, Angela de Castro, Nalle Laanela and more.
