Thomas Rochelet

 
Thomas (@iamthomasrochelet on Instagram) is a French circus artist specializing in aerial straps. He performed at the 45th Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain and gained national recognition on France's Got Talent, where he was awarded a Golden Buzzer and reached the finale.

Before transitioning to circus arts, he enjoyed a career as a professional figure skater for more than 15 years and later worked as a coach and choreographer.

His work is defined by the fusion of his figure skating heritage with aerial straps. By merging the elegance, lines, and musicality of skating with the power and verticality of straps, he has created a distinctive hybrid movement language.

This cross-disciplinary approach has led to the development of a series of innovative and visually unique aerial straps figures.
