About the artists
Kert Ridaste and Saana Leppänen are coming from countries close to each other, Estonia and Finland.
Both started at an early age in local youth circuses. While Kert was in OMAtsirkus emphasizing movement and dancing and competing in partner acrobatics, Saana was in Sorin Sirkus focusing on aerials and expressing herself on stage trough theater.
Their roads met in Dance and Circus University at Stockholm (DOCH) where they graduated together at 2018 with disciplines of hand to hand, dance acrobatics and vertical rope. Yet both of them have their own colorful background they realized the enjoyment of moving, creating and at the end performing together.
