Welcoming Juampi gongora:
Juan Pablo Góngora Reyes, “Juampi Góngora,” is a binational Mexican-American
circus and performing artist from Chihuahua, Mexico. His practice explores
movement, presence, and object manipulation, moving between juggling, circus,
contemporary dance, and performance.
As a creator, performer, teacher, advisor, and rigger, he has collaborated with a wide
range of companies and artists in Mexico and abroad. His career has taken him to
Germany, Switzerland, France, Canada, Mexico, and Central America, working
across circus, contemporary dance, and performance. He has taught at institutions
including Cirko de Mente, El Circa Jalisco, the Mexican Academy of Circus Arts, and
CRAC de Lomme in France.
He co-directed InSCide, a production from Cirko de Mente’s Contemporary Circus
Arts program, and served as the lead Juggling instructor during its first graduating
generations. He is a co-founder of the NA ́I Circus and Dance Festival, held for
seven editions in Chihuahua, and currently collaborates with the International Circus
and Chou Festival (FiCHo Chihuahua) as a rigger and stage manager.
His current work focuses on performative research around landscape and
interdisciplinarity, while continuing to develop independent projects in Mexico and
abroad.

We are thrilled to have Jacob Crow:
From the competitive dance stages of New England to the elite halls of Montreal’s National Circus School, Jacob Crow(23) is a multidisciplinary artist who speaks fluently through movement.
Originally hailing from Merrimack, New Hampshire, Jacob's artistic roots began with
Danceworks Movement Design before he ran away to tour the region with the renowned Circus Smirkus. Seeking to push his physical boundaries further, he relocated to Montreal, graduating in 2025 from the prestigious National Circus School with a Major in Handbalance and a Minor in Rope.
Today, Jacob calls Montreal home, where he blends the technical precision of acrobatics with the expressive fluidity of dance, using his craft to articulate what words simply cannot.
