World-renowned circus artist Grace Good astonishes audiences with aerial feats and fiery stunts, as well as impressive hoop and balancing acts — sometimes combining them all into one jaw-dropping spectacle!

Grace is… Good

Grace began her circus journey teaching herself hoop tricks as a hobby in college, but she soon grew to love the art and began adding extra hoops and fire. Determined to make a career out of hooping, she left school and began performing on the streets of Nashville, Tennessee.

It wasn’t long until Grace was approached by a circus aerialist, who took Grace under her wings. What followed was a whirlwind adventure of learning other circus acts, joining a touring company, going viral on social media, and even performing on national television!

Mind Boggling Feats

Although Grace has earned great success, that doesn’t mean she has stopped pushing herself. One of her most recent tricks, and biggest challenges to date, involves her hanging from an aerial silk by one hand while keeping multiple hoops spinning around her body! Believe It or Not!, Grace begins the feat while balanced atop her iconic “big red ball,” which is almost as tall as she is!
