About Us

I am Ryan Christian and I’m Nicola Jackman (Nikki) and I am Torsten Kremser (Toto). Through an inspired moment of fate, we chose to merge our worlds of education and entertainment with our shared great love for other humans and this planet. We united our dreams for a world full of hope and joy and with that came the conception and co-creation of Thrivors & the Story of Unconditional Love (SOUL) Circus.

The unstoppable trio behind Thrivors & SOUL Circus

Combined we have over 30 years of community engagement, care and upliftment as well as production, logistics and event experience.
