Stéphanie Bouchard discovered that she possessed a keen interest in performing and circus arts during her accomplishments in gymnastics.  She followed the preparatory program and then completed a four-year degree at National Circus School of Montreal where she fulfilled her pleasure of flipping around and play with gravity.

After her formation, she traveled around to perform and discover beauties of the world. Her experience is very diversified: street performances, big tops, theater, festivals, corporative events, children shows, stuntman for T.V show and working as an extra in movies.

Written and spoken languages: French, English and Spanish.
