The quick
way to the top of the Swiss juggler Claudius Specht can be referred to as
a “dream career“.
While his
classmates were playing football, Claudius practised juggling with clubs already
at the age of 8 at the well-known Swiss Youth CIRCUS BASILISK. “Infected with
the juggling-virus”, Claudius used every opportunity in his spare time to
practise.
After
graduating, he was engaged at CIRCUS FLIC-FLAC for the season 1994/95, and by
that he finally turned his hobby into his profession. During the following
winter Claudius performed at CIRCUS KRONE-BAU in Munich, in GOP-VARIETY in
Hanover, Germany and during the season of 1996 he impressed and fascinated the
audience at CIRCUS KNIE in Switzerland.
In
his juggling act, Claudius concentrates only on two types of
props: clubs and cups. Impressively quickly he swirls up to seven clubs in the
air, and he is the only juggler that throws ten cups in the air and is able to
catch them all again.
He has
already set his next goals: “Don’t dream of your life, live your dreams” is
Claudius motto.
