On this episode of the Circuspreneur Podcast, host Shenea Stiletto interviews founder of the Mongolian Contortion Convention Erdenechimeg Jamiyan Janov also known as " Angelique Janov. "
Angelique studied the art of contortion at the Mongolian State Circus, and became a professional contortionist in 1970. With over fifty years of experience, she made history by creating and performing the groundbreaking "Double Marinelli" Trick. She served as the coach and contortion expert for the Cirque Du Soleil show "O" in Las Vegas from 1998-2020. She has also received numerous awards from international circus festivals, such as the Queen of Contortion title, and the Merited Actress of Mongolia. In 2023, Angelique founded the Mongolian Contortion Convention, which will take place later this fall of 2025.
Drawing on decades of teaching experience, Angelique authored the book Supple. The book covers the history and unique features of Mongolian contortion, and for the first- time provides a step-by-step instructions on key techniques. Angelique has also been a Board member of the Mongolian Contortion Association since 2016.
