Anaïs Guimond Email and Phone Number

When this former bungee-trapeze performer plunged into entrepreneurship, she entered unfamiliar territory. A Quebecer who had been seduced by the Cirque du Soleil at an early age, Anaïs started training in circus arts in 1994. She performed hundreds of shows as a circus artist in Canada and the United States before moving to Nova Scotia in 2001. She then opened Atlantic Cirque in 2002 in a province and a language that were both new to her. Although her specialty was relatively unknown to Atlantic Canadians, it didn’t take long for the local population to be captivated by this unique art form. Today, Atlantic Cirque offers 45 classes to 250+ weekly participants, aged six months and up, as well as camps, workshops, birthday parties, professional development and corporate team building programs. In addition, the company’s artist agency has been providing entertainment services since 2003 for corporate events, galas, private functions, fundraisers, commercials and more. In August 2017, with three children at home and the youngest starting school in the fall, Anais made the decision to take on a side-venture and joined Rodan & Fields as an independent consultant for their skincare products (aguimond.myrandf.com/ca). She continues to oversee the daily operations of Atlantic Cirque and enjoys balancing motherhood and entrepreneurship.Awards
