LARA JACOBS RIGOLO, known as «Balance Goddess» in Amaluna, a Cirque du Soleil touring production, is bringing the world famous “Sanddorn Balance Act" to Brooklyn. During the pandemic Lara created a groundbreaking performance art space and craft cocktail lounge, designed to honor the thirteen ancient Moon Goddesses. Once again, she proved that extra effort goes a long way, and in September 2021, Lara opened MOONRISE, an immersive new space combining dance, theater, acrobatics and more.
Lara was born into an artistic family in a small town in Switzerland. At the age of six she began performing and touring as a trapeze artist and she completed her training at the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater.
