i am and one thing i remember of, of my though it was telling me never to give up a meeting with the turning point in your current classes. life began in this place zips at circus academy in cape town. south africa today is training day. it looks effortless, but your kobus has to be highly focused all the time. once the club did you all once in one to get injured. if the look about the vehicle to go back to what? because the 1st thing that is gonna be in your mind is that fall is going to happen again. or that club is gonna hit me again. me and my middle name is danger. normally if i fall at a stand up and say yes,

let's go again with keep on going, meeting failure with a sense of humor. with clubs or bulls, you're kobus is training $5.00 to $6.00 times per week with his stage partner. jason, you kobus has come a long way. the 29 year old is one of the main performers that zip sack circus. clown, acrobat juggler. you covers his repertoire is wide. after the break back to full focus in 10 weeks, one of the most important events in south africa will take place the national arts festival in crimes town. you kobus and his colleagues will perform their latest stage program until then all tricks and stunts have to be on point. zip zip is not only a circus society, but also a training center. the academy in the cape town,

district of woodstock, off as a free education for young people. brett van wren's book found zip that in 1995 together with his wife lawrence, both a former circus artists. we believe that any kid and matter what the background, if they're given the opportunity in life and they are passionate about what they they do and any child can make it. and a lot of kids, you know, who have talent and skills, often left beyond and zip said, you know, we kind of provide that platform to give children that maybe don't have as much as others, the platform to do something with their life. you kobus, who every one calls trompe was one of these children. touring with the zip sap circus, took him around the world in the last years he even performed in front of tennis superstar roger federer and barack obama at the white house. however,

his road to success was rocking. as a teenager, you kobus would live on the streets of pal, a southern capetown. he was addicted to substances such as man drex and meth which a highly dangerous drugs you kobus was at rock bottom. this cellphone picture is the only one catching from those times a trip to the past, only a few 100 meters away from the academy. this is the place where he would live. you kobus is joining zips up at the age of 16. with the help of an outreach program from the straits to the stage. so how did he manage to do that? i wanted more for myself that didn't think will go, in fact with rags. what gangs that as a man, i love that i that didn't come close to my head and said it gave me a taste that gave me a bite of the apple. and i told myself,

i won. i won more of this apple. and today have got so much more of that apple a weekend with the circus people instead of staying at home. you kobus jason and coach ivan, want to leave the city, his friend jason is a passionate angler. you kobus is still learning. maybe he's lucky today with keep with the little problem with it. take him with the line. you kobus this trip to the sea means a lot. it means to have the feeling of the normal life. you don't have to stress

about anything to yellow ways to sicily. go and hoping there's a fight going long and indeed you kobus has got something on the hook up with an up. let me look for the the men try again from the bridge since almost 8 years you kobus and jason aren't experienced teen renella, which other works. and i feel i know which way he goes either which way i go like. so it's nice to be able to work with someone like that. i, we spend so much time with each other. i feel that it's like, it's impossible not to become friends. you know, they didn't catch a fish today, but they've enjoyed a brief moment of ease. ah,

only 2 weeks left until the festival performance last rehearsals at the zips at don't. the atmosphere is tense. i a few honest injured you, kobus hurt his wrists when he tried to lift jason i wasn't strong enough in as as a cash. and then we stopped. so now and, and with of pain that it's workable. you kobus is hot on himself. he ignores the pain and participates in all the run throughs. almost every one of the circus has experienced the rough sides of life. and there is no coincidence in the topics of the performances always being about, existential matters. keep

show inside free court to throw say, you know, trying to find a way back home. so he's the festival gets closer. and like the weather, the moods are also samba o. u. curtis feels pain in his whole body. the result of too much training and emotional tension, a message should help him. most brain owners got it on the look back and bless me being upside down. too much precious, also pulling to the back. that's my question. so pick basically the truth and if he say it's used and abused and over that if you, if they well developed, there are lots of muscle but they also really tied to 45 minute treatment works its magic how,

how heavy lift and white i had. now, i feel sleepy to actually quit can from the pictures of that oprah you kobus needs to get fit again because time flies only one week later, kathy day at the zips at doug with that to morrow morning you kobus and the performers drive to graham's town. but boston trailer, it's located a 1000 kilometers north of cape town. quick goodbye from the boss. with

friends, good wishes, unnecessary. the group doesn't know what's ahead of them. a festival time for the 1st time since a 2 year break, the national ubs festival takes place again in graham's town. the audience is excited for great hearts and acrobatics. meanwhile, backstage the mood of the group is bad due to an accident of one of the members of the last rehearsal. he compa foam a shock to everyone. mm. however, they're all doing their best to focus. now it's time to be professional, adjusted to the new situation, to believe in their own palla and strikes, and to give on 100 percent for the injured friend and group member re

i trying to get together. then they have to get new mind to get these on the left to mind. the viani, very important person in life. it's a who i'm doing, i'm doing all of his x that i went on to the line many years. so i am quite a bit nervous as to reserve. i don't know how he's going to me, but the only way i can say, i'll just explain how i feel. the injured dray is also excited. slowly the room fills with paper. and the curtain goes up. my name is a noun and one thing i remember on my door it must help me. never to give up

a meeting with you. kobus gave everything. but now he asked the improvised raises act ah. 6 it worked out when the appeals in the audience says it all, but the artists don't want to take all the credit for themselves. they're heading straight towards the engine team in,

in the middle of the happy bunch. i believe school because he's well aware that within this group form a homeless child has found himself a real family with in good shape and bundle of joy and the big challenge. children, we take out some days and during pregnancy and some myths about childhood, down to sign on d w. on the road with our travel super heroes. my mission is clear. cache and nicoli, felicia explored germany. they dive in and they check everything out. there's
