Performer’s Biography (Individual profile)
Instantly likable, Tomio has a presence on stage that engages the audience, in
whatever country that might be. Using popular music from his native home of Japan,
he starts his show by captivating his audience with a pair of "8-ring". Two rings
attached together to resemble the number "8", that he controls in a mesmerizing
motion. Impossible to describe in words. A must see to believe experience! "I feel
the most happy when I am using my diabolo", Tomio says as he practices, working on
his next level tricks. It is easy to see this is true, as he moves from 8-Ring, to
contact juggling crystal balls, and finally to his Diabolos... his command and
connection to the Diabolo goes from fun to the seriousness. Intense precision! 1 then
2 and finally 3 diabolos in the air as he wraps up his finale, and the audience is never
far from cheers of delight.
Tomio's dream? To bring his show to every country in the world, and someday take
the main prize as the world's best Diabolo performer.
