She co-choreographed and performed in the shows “Villa Villa” and Fuerzabruta. Her next big artistic venture came by way of her roots through a well-known avant-garde aerial group called ‘De La Guarda’. This gave Tamara unique experiences few ever get a chance to have, seeing the world and performing in front of hundreds and thousands of screaming fans worldwide! She eventually finds herself touring with Madonna on three world tours, along with handfuls of other huge pop icons. Her love of free movement, individualism and eMOTIONal exploration eventually led her to a successful and ongoing 20+ year professional dance, aerial arts and choreography career that spanned from New York City, to Hollywood and throughout the world. First by way of underground clubs that attracted the most eccentric of beings, later through professional dance theatre, Broadway and the NYC underground scene. She found her-SELF through dance, freeing all parts of her that had been put on hold up thill then. Growing up an athlete gave her great discipline though her nature has always been raw, wild and free!

Tamara “Cuchira” Levinson was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina and moved to the United States of America at age five. Unfortunately, as he is a blue belt, he is usually the fool being choked. The things he most enjoys doing now all involve other people forming human towers and throwing bodies around a stage, manipulating and diving through hoops, parenting and trying to choke out fools using Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He is now (unsuccessfully) trying to retire from performing and concentrate on passing on his physical knowledge both online and in-person while being the best Dad he can be to his new daughter. He has worked as an acrobat, choreographer, director, trainer and tour manager both nationally and internationally with the Australian companies Circa and Gravity and Other Myths before co-founding a new circus company in Tasmania called Rooke. Lewie is recognised as one of the foremost contemporary circus artists in the world and has been working professionally in multiple aspects of the circus and performing industry for over 15 years. In 2013 He won a gold medal at what his mum calls "the circus Olympics" or the Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain in Paris for an aerial straps piece. He is most known for doing spinny, shiny, flippy things on the floor where he has pioneered a new form of hard-floor circus tumbling.
