Holder of 8 Guinness World Records, YouTuber, and publisher of the books of juggling historian Karl-Heinz Ziethen. Niels Duinker first thought of becoming a successful international performer when he was 12 years old, and well before the end of his teenage years, his dream had become a reality. Niels has performed on all 7 continents. He has been featured on TV in America, Asia, and Europe.Niels won a Gold Medal in the 2009 Taiwan Circus Festival and he has worked all over Europe, in Asia, and made special guest appearances in the United States. His childhood interest in the art of juggling has led this motivated young man on a journey around the world – and it has only just begun.Modestly beginning his career in a Rotterdam youth circus, Niels now spends his time jetting between high-profile engagements at theaters, casinos, cruise ships, theme parks, and corporate events. Regardless of the venue, audiences always embrace his energetic execution, boyish charm, and dynamic dexterity. More than just a pretty face with a bag full of cool tricks, in the spring of 2009 Niels completed the course work for his Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. Another dream turned reality.Sharing his love of the arts with the performers of tomorrow, Niels regularly lectures as a guest artist at two Government-funded professional circus schools in the Netherlands: Codarts Circus School in Rotterdam and the Fontys Circus School in Tilburg.While his focus is clearly to entertain audiences beyond their expectations, Niels still enjoys juggling and, regardless of his impressive achievements in the field, he constantly strives to bring new skills, effects, and laughs to his stage shows.You will find Niels' name in the 2013, 2014, 2016, and 2017 GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS.Specialties: juggling
