Joakin
"I am Joakin Ortzi, I am 17 years old and I have been a student at EASAC since 2014. Passionate about parkour, I wanted to evolve in this sport to have more freedom and create my own style of movement. So I turned to the School of Acrobatics of the Show and Circus Arts (EASAC) to learn the techniques of Acrobatics which is the basis of the art of movement.
During all these years I have evolved in ways I never imagined. [...] . I also learned to be careful not to endanger my body, to preserve it in some way, by seriously warming up and relaxing as best as I could because that requires a lot of demands and responsibilities, especially to avoid injury. [...]
Today, my project is to integrate a higher school of acrobatics and circus arts with the aim of becoming a professional in this field, to improve my performance, deepen my artistic vision and make it a profession."
