Please complete the ACE/AYCO/ACA Circus Survey For ALL Circus Workers in America:https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HTSMTJSOn this episode of the Live Like An Acrobat Podcast celebrating the generations of Circus Artists, host Shenea Stiletto interviews handbalancer, contortionist, and inventor Ricardo Sosa who was born in Havana, Cuba. Ricardo began studying ballet when he was six years old. At seventeen, he enrolled in the Yuri Mandich Circus School in Havana, the national, Russian-style state circus school. There, he trained for four years to be a professional circus performer. In 1994, while performing in Colombia at Circo Egred Hermanos, Ricardo and other performers in the Cuban troupe defected. It was a huge scandal in Havana: Never before had such an important group of performers defected. For Ricardo Sosa, it was the beginning of a new career. Ricardo has since settled in the United States, where he has worked extensively in nightclubs, casinos, and circuses, including Circus Circus and the Bellagio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada; Teatro ZinZanni in Seattle, Washington and San Francisco, California; Universoul Circus; and Circus Sarasota. He has also embarked on an international career, appearing with Circo Moira Orfei in Italy and numerous variety shows in Germany, notably with GOP Varieté and Palazzo.Swiss Circus Ukrainian Artist Donation Effort:https://donate.redcrossredcrescent.org/ch/WirAlleZusammen-10211/~my-donation?fbclid=IwAR3JGIRsxTb1OZ_OANGjegcKe-KwGLPxlnIHItQboz0eepMgLApslPG5be0Ukrainian Students of Art & Theater GoFund Me:https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-ukraines-displaced-children-of-the-arts?utm_campaign=p_lico+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=customer&fbclid=IwAR3AGZTnBJi5fJ23Vy54XdmVwMCM3W_JfS5UyN8yFs667z09b-vxQzSVMEcPlease consider becoming a PATRON to encourage the continued growth, expansion and evolution of this podcast- Enjoy Early Releases Of The Podcast! #patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/livelikeanacrobatpodcastThis episode of the podcast was sponsored by Zencastr-Zencastr Special 30% Coupon Code: Zencastr is THE BEST podcasting platform:https://zencastr.com/pricing?coupon=sheneastiletto&interval=monthlyWww.Circuspreneurblog.comLive Like An Acrobat #Podcast #Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/episode/6O0utPJ8MJfM6QmwPd4lsV?si=GHHQvY9PQ4uk3iniJYoHVQ#ITunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/shenea-stiletto-live-like-an-acrobat/id1514321355Follow @sheneastiletto on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/sheneastiletto/?hl=en@livelikeanacrobatpodcast:https://www.instagram.com/livelikeanacrobatpodcast/Facebook: Live Like An Acrobat Podcast-
