Jatta Borg


I'm a circus artist from Finland, currently based in France. Specialized in handstand, contortion and acrobatic-contortioned roller skating, I also have learned the basic skills for most of the disciplines during my 13 years training in a youth circus Bravuuri in Finland. In 2010 I got accepted to the second year of circus education in AFUK - Academy of untamed creativity in Copenhagen, where I studied during two years with handstand and contortion as my main disciplines. In 2012 I continued my studies in Le Lido - Centre des arts du Cirque de Toulouse, where I started to explore how to combine theater, song, humor and absurdity with my circus skills.
I graduated in 2015 with a humorous handstand-contortion-singing act Blue night, which had a big success touring all over Europe during 5 years. In 2018 I created my own company Cie Biscornue, and in 2019 I premiered with L'hiver en juillet (Winter in July), a 40 minutes long solo show. I'm also one of the co-founders and artists of Naga Collective and Le Collectif d'équilibristes. I've also worked in several companies as Winter circus Hurjaruuth, Circo Aereo, Les Nouveaux nez & cie, Cie Yoann Bourgeois, GOP Varieté Theatre, La Compagnie d'Elles, Cie Una...
Currently I'm touring with Le Collectif d'équilibristes and Derby. I'm also giving handstand and contortion classes and workshops.
