Mia
Leiggener
Circus artist and movement specialist from Valais — creating poetic images between air, fire and physical presence.
Body.Risk.Poetry.
Mia Leiggener is a contemporary circus artist from Valais, Switzerland. Her artistic language combines aerial hoop, silks, handstand, dance and fire with a strong sense of visual atmosphere.
Her work moves between precision and freedom: technically grounded, physically intelligent and open to the unexpected. Nature, unusual spaces and human connection shape performances that feel immediate, poetic and alive.
Alongside her artistic practice, Mia is a qualified physiotherapist. Her knowledge of anatomy, rehabilitation and movement informs both her stage work and her approach to coaching.
Movement becomes an image. An image becomes an encounter.
