Hand Balancing Act Thrills Audiences At Al Bustan Centre

As part of the season festivities, Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS) 2009 is hosting an acrobatic show at Al Bustan Centre by Natalie Reckert, a professional German acrobat who performs breathtaking stunts and tricks with ease and expertise.

The performance runs for almost twenty minutes that begins with simple circus tricks. Once the audience is settled, Reckert begins the first part that is composed of the hand-balancing act. With the use of table and two stands, Reckert displays an amazing set of body movements paralleled to outstanding circus moves. In the second part of the show, Reckert uses a long silk cloth for climbing and acrobatic exhibition. The acts of the show may appear theatrical yet dangerously thrilling to the crowd but Reckert assures that the stage is safe and secure.

The show is choreographed by Reckert who allotted months of preparation for this particular show in Dubai, ensuring that the costume, music, and the pacing of the show would attract and entertain crowds. Reckert, who has been performing as a gymnast and a dancer since she was five, studied Circus Arts in London. She also puts her self through a rigorous three-hour exercise regime to keep fit for her show.
