Some say that when all the horses work together in sync while in hitch, it's like poetry in motion.
Here is another form of poetry in motion captured by production team Kuma Films of skilled Taiwanese street performer, Isaac Hou and his Cyr Wheel.
The Sumerians invented the wheel, circa 3300 BC. Magdalen Islands native, Daniel Cyr, designed the Cyr Wheel in 1996 AD. In 2003, Cyr was a winner of the Silver Medal at the wheel's debut at the prestigious Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain in Paris. Look for the Cyr in use in the Cirque Eloize shows, Normade, Rain and iD, as well as in Cirque du Soleil's Cortero.
With holidays on the way, we'll soon enough will be turning in circles. We might as well imagine this as a giant harness ring, watching someone making an art of going in circles, and sit back enjoying the dance.
