BECOMING a circus performer seemed like a natural fit for former Ipswich dancer Rebecca Height.
The 16-year-old was first introduced to community program Ipswich Circus about three years ago in search of new challenges.
From her very first trick, a new passion was born; the skill of climbing tissue rope quickly becoming one of her favourites.
âIâve been doing dance my whole life, I wanted to do something other than dance and my mum found circus and I thought I would give it a try,â she said.
While comfortable on stage, the teen will next year take to the streets of Ipswich alongside other students as part of a circus street parade.
