About
Nina Burri has been a professional ballet dancer for over 10 years, working for some of the best dance companies and TV shows worldwide before she decided to perform as a solo-act and went to Beijing-China to study the art of contortion and handbalancing. 6 months later she went back to Europe and choreographed her first showact, and the success with that new career started soon after that. Nina got nationwide attention after her second place ranking in the TV show "Switzerland's Got Talent" in 2011 and has been hired for the best variety and circus shows ever since, including "Swiss National Circus KNIE", and many high-class corporate events and galas worldwide. In spring 2014 Nina got the Greencard as an "Alien of Extraordinary Ability" and she can now continue her successful career in the United States.
