Dan
Worldwide, --
Male, 33
Lead artist, feature act and fire coach for Cirque Du Soleil. Recently for the ZAiA production in Macau from 2010 to 2012. Currently freelancing while between Cirque contracts.
I'm a fire dancer / fire manipulation specialist. I use flaming props such as fire swords, fire ropes, fire staffs, with special effects and pyrotechnics in a combination of dance and martial arts style movements. Ask me anything, and check my website... www.sparkfiredance.com
Everything ends eventually. I think it would take a very big change in the world for Cirque to shut their doors entirely. They can always downsize in a depression, people like to be entertained and taken away from their worries into another world.

As young as possible. There's plenty of resources online for the various disciplines but it's best to come from gymnastics or learn at one of the major circus schools.
