Bio

Though they be but little, they are fierce—Traviesa is a performing circus artist, coach, costume designer and yet still a dancer at heart. Studying movement arts since 2016 and performing circus arts since 2021, their repertoire includes multi-disciplinary spotlight solos, ambient crowdwork, and ensemble cast performances. With a background in dancing and theater, they blend their love of emotional storytelling with circus arts.
