JONATHAN MORIN
A former gymnast on the Canadian National Team, Jonathan has been a professional circus performer for the past 27 years. He first joined Cirque du Soleil as a Spanish Web artist, later inventing his own circus apparatus, which he named the “Crossed Wheel.” With this original contraption, he developed two distinct performances: a solo act on the ground and an aerial duo with Marie-Eve Bisson. Both acts earned international recognition and were awarded prizes at several prestigious circus festivals. Jonathan is also a certified life coach and injury prevention specialist, constantly seeking cutting-edge knowledge to support and enhance athletic performance.
MARIE-EVE BISSON
With 27 years of experience as a professional circus artist, including performing in three Cirque du Soleil productions, Marie-Eve has shared her artistry on stages around the world. Specializing in Aerial Hoop and Aerial Crossed Wheel, she brings depth, creativity, and precision to every movement. Now also a certified life coach since 13 years, she combines the power of physical expression with personal growth, helping others build confidence, self-love, and authentic presence, both in the air and in life!
