A fight for the top prize was not easy, because the festival was participated by the masters of high class circus art, with different numbers on genre, stylistics, style of performance, and it was impossible to foresee the best one. Of course, jury had not an easy task to determine the very best. The fight for this title made all participants of the festival to worry about the result but I think it gave a special boldness to our guys. For this reason we have taken the lead in all parameters over participants of this grandiose circus festivity. We have done much works for that. Over 2 months our group had intensive trainings for the trip to Moscow, and they all were unanimously aimed at victory. We have prepared a program where the main part was assigned to complex effects of trick riding and trained it without a pause. By the way, our audience can see the same program within the next few days in arena of Ashgabat circus.


There are no words to describe those incredible feelings that we felt when the name of winners of the festival was known. Competent jury members from different world countries needed two hours meeting before determination of prize-winners. Of course it was very exciting moment but when everything was decided we were glad two much for that.

The feelings of pride for the motherland filled all of us, when the whole audience headed by jury members in standing position welcomed with applause our prize. A pride has filled hearts of all for their motherland when the entire audience hall at the head of the jury panel rose and applauded our awards.


Of course this creative competition has become a wonderful school for our young riders. They felt true sense of competitiveness and experienced feelings of winners that always inspires everyone, makes to do chosen occupation more diligently always to be the best. After the victory in Moscow we have received many invitations to make tours in different cities.

The second place was delivered to the host country- Big State Circus on Prospekt Vernadskogo for acrobatic number, the third place went to artists from Ethiopia; they have presented acrobatic number as well. Our group has won prizes in all nominations of the circus art festival.
