I AM Circus

My name is Martin Medicus - I'm 6'3" and 182lbs. I made this tumblr 'cause I just want to share my small circus victories and achievements with the internet.

Myself with Kate Magram at SHOW Circus Studio in Easthampton, MA.  I know the trick as "Gilded Leaf" but I've heard other names, including "m***erf***er" which is fairly apt since it HURTS.   Would like to do it again though, and work on getting my shoulders rotated fully forward.

My first ever back flip with a full twist - awkward, but it'll get better!

Video was cut off a little quick - I'll get a better recording next time.
