Bryony Page: From winning gold to joining the circus

You may remember in the summer at the Paris 2024 Bryony Page won Team GB's first-ever trampoline Olympic gold medal.

She is hoping to win Olympic gold again at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics, but before that, she has another challenge ahead of her - joining the circus!

The 33-year-old is heading to Montreal in Canada to train with Cirque du Soleil.

And, she hopes to join them on tour next year!

Speaking about her decision to join Cirque du Soleil, Bryony said: "I love the idea of performing in the show and using trampoline in a different way".

As well as her gold this summer, Page won silver at the Rio 2016 Olympics, and bronze at Tokyo 2020.

She said she is still 'in shock' about winning gold.

"I know it's happened and I have a medal to prove it to myself, but I still can't really process how it's happened and that it actually has."

Page's latest adventure will see her training with the world-famous Canadian circus group before coming back to train for the LA Olympics.

"When I compete and there's a crowd, I see it as a performance just as much as I see it as a competition," she said.

"I love that side of it, that performance side, with the costumes and the make-up and the set and the music and the team."
