In the year 2018 we met during a circus contract and fell in love. After the six week contract we carried on our individual lives. 

In 2019, after months of maintaining a long distance relationship, we began working together in Ireland, Declan as a clown, me as an aerialist. One year later Covid introduced itself, so we decided to leave Ireland and go back to my home, Switzerland.
 

Lockdown was a perfect chance for us to leave behind our solo carriers and reinvent ourselves as a couple: we created the Comedy Ballett.

An act that combines our individual strengths: Declan's history as a Clown brings the fun and joy, Yayita's background as an artist, and forever love for ballett, brings the acrobatic and elegant elements into the act. 

Our secondary act, the Whips, was initially created due to an accident.
I, Yayita, trained for the next contract in America, but fell five meters from the Swinging Trapeze and fractured my arm/wrist and hips.
At the time I wasn't keen on going back into the air, so I the plan was to create an act that promised more safety: The Whips.
But my heart still beats for the air, I am still finding myself creating and performing numerous aerial acts.

​

Since 2020 we return to Switzerland every winter. Initially the idea was just to support my parents in running their dinner show "Bellis Weihnachtsvariete", but with every year we took on more and more responsibility upon ourselves. 

Now we treat the show like our own.
