CODEY HAYES

Seventeen-year-old Codey Hayes

Have you always been involved in circus?

What was your primary inspiration for becoming

so heavily involved in the art of circus?

What is your long-term goal?

What would you say to other aspiring

young circus artists to help them achieve

their goals?

You are currently teaching at Hoopla Circus;

how does it feel to pass on your passion

for circus through teaching?

What would be the most challenging
