"We do it because we love it"
Ian and Dave have been practicing circus skills as a hobby for many years. Now they perform and teach semi-professionally. Ian and Dave also perform as a part of Vertical Reality, and have helped them become the Midland's number one entertainment group.

"I'm Ian and my favourite aspect of being a 'Diabolo Brother' is the adrenaline rush I get when performing to crowds of people. I specialise in 2 diabolo manipulation and stick release (suicide) tricks. My other circus skills include poi spinning and juggling. In my spare time I enjoy mountain biking, smoothie making, and I'm a freelance photographer and web designer.

"My Name's Dave and the thing I like most about being a 'Diabolo Brother' is sharing my skills with others, I love it when someone else learns a trick that I've taught them. I enjoy the challenge that diabolo gives me and I can't resist the buzz that performing to an audience gives me. In my spare time I play badminton and referee lower league football.
