Ali is an independent creative. Founder and creative director of No Fit State for 30 years. During that time I have been a performer, director , Coach, facilitator, consultant and trainer/mentor. My creation portfolio for Nofit State includes Immortal, Parklife, Barricade, Open House and Block. Moved on from the company in 2018 to try and play a more strategic role for the development of circus in Wales and the UK and produce a few of my own projects. Currently working as a consultant for Extraordinary Bodies, mentoring several UK companies including Pirates of the Caribina, Circus Mash and Mimbre. I consider myself an expert in large-scale participatory circus with a focus on the outdoors. I have developed a number of cutting-edge and meaningful circus projects.
