Seda Akpinar-Ulrich

“Seda is a passionate and determined movement artist whose dedication and authenticity shine through in every performance.”

Movement has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a child, I instinctively danced whenever I heard music, drawn to movement long before I understood it as an art form. At 18, that passion evolved into a deeper commitment when I began training in hip-hop and contemporary dance.

A few years later, I discovered aerial acrobatics and instantly felt at home in the world of circus arts. Since then, a wide range of disciplines has become an essential part of my artistic journey. I have trained with versatile international circus artists who continue to inspire and challenge me to grow.

My practice is rooted in dedication, curiosity, and continuous exploration. I invest countless hours each week into refining my technique, expanding my creativity, and deepening my expressiveness as a performer.

Today, I specialize in vertical aerial arts, straps, rope and silks, contortion and hand balancing. Based in Vienna, I travel internationally to perform, collaborate and coach.
