African Acrobats
From the street theaters of Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania in East Africa, a group of local boys trained tirelessly to perfect their craft and became the African Acrobats! Their breathtaking, fast-paced, and astounding show of African Acrobatics and Traditional Dance was featured on Britain's Got Talent in 2009 and Australia's Got Talent in 2010, making it to the semi-finals.
The art of Acrobatics has become their way of life, and over the last 15 years, they have performed more than 2,000 shows across various continents, bringing the spirit of their ancestors to life.
The African Acrobats performances leave a lasting impression on the audience for days after the show. Their high-energy dance acts, part Cirque du Soleil, are incredibly fast-paced. People are amazed by the teamwork and cooperation, highlighting the benefits of working together.
With every performance, they create an exhilarating atmosphere and a unique acrobatic experience that is unforgettable. They also have a remarkable talent for engaging the audience in the show with activities like skipping, acrobatics, limbo, and even hand-clapping and laughter.
They have performed at some of the world’s most prestigious venues for corporate events, trade shows, private functions, as well as circuses and theme parks.
