Fran Alvarez

After a restless adolescence looking for an activity to focus his abundant energy on, Fran was introduced to circus at the age of 16.  He went on to start his circus career at 18 at the preparatory school of Madrid, Carampa, and later at the Ecole Supérieure des Arts du Cirque de Bruxelles, specialising in hand to hand and group acrobatics.

With a focus on improving his core technique – and becoming a human trampoline – Fran continued his training in France and was involved in the creative development of several shows with high-level acrobatic collectives across Europe.

In his free time, Fran enjoys Olympic-style weightlifting and reading epic fantasy books.
