Alex is Robinson’s younger brother, and also a fourth generation circus performer. He was only six months old when his family came to the USA. Alex was bitten by the flying trapeze bug early in life and began flying at the extremely young age of five. By age seven, he was regularly performing, when he would hang by his knees and swing across to his father. At age eight he began doing a layout across, and about a year later, started throwing double somersaults. Eventually he would begin throwing triples and take over the position of main flyer for THE FLYING CORTES.
Alex has also been involved in an aerial cradle act and worked his own juggling act. He has also flown with other troupes such as THE FLYING GAONAS, THE FLYING VARGAS and THE FLYING POEMAS. Along with his brother, he has performed on such shows as ROYAL HANNEFORD CIRCUS, TARZAN ZERBINI CIRCUS and BENTLEY BROTHER’S CIRCUS.
