Cirque du Soleil artist · Guinness World Records title holder

Everything
I know
for free.

I spent 18 years learning to flip, balance and move for a living, on stage with Cirque du Soleil and then into a world record. Every tutorial I have ever made is here, in the order you should actually learn it. No paywall, no sign-up.

Learn it in the right order

Most people fail a skill because they attempted it three steps too early. Pick a group on the right, start at the top, and do not move on until the one before it feels boring. Everything plays right here.

Now playing: Learn how to handstand in 15 minutes

Start here

Never done any of this. Begin at the beginning.

Flips

The ones everybody asks me for. Learn them in this order.

Handstand and inversions

Being upside down is a skill, not a talent.

Off the floor

Getting up without using your hands.

Cartwheels

Where most people's first tricking skill comes from.

Gear

What I actually train with

Short list on purpose. These are things I own and use, not a catalogue.

Officially amazing

I did not just read about this

Highest pistol squat box jump (male), 100 cm, set in Salamanca on 19 March 2026 and verified by Guinness World Records. I teach these skills because I spent two decades actually doing them, on stage and on a record attempt where it either worked or it did not.

Live events

I bring world
records to events

Expos, festivals and brand activations. I produce a live challenge zone where your crowd competes on a real physical feat, and when it fits, an officially adjudicated world record attempt on your floor.

Who is teaching you

Trained for a stage,
not for a feed

Cirque du Soleil put me through the kind of training most people never see: progressions, prep work, and how to fall without hurting yourself. That is what these tutorials are built on. Not tricks for the camera, the actual steps, in the actual order, including the boring ones that stop you getting injured.
