I've been working as a clown for four years now and I still don't have a professional name - couldn't think of one good enough  It doesn't matter anyway because there aren't many clowns to distinguish myself from! I started juggling few months ago and I just got my 260 baloons yesterday. I didn't have anybody to learn from so I had to do everything by myself. I was working in kindergartens with children before this, leading gym classes and that experience 'pushed me' into the clown bussiness. I'm really glad I found this forum and receiving this great warm welcome from all of you! I'm quite sure now I'll have great time here!

Balloon twisting is a blast for sure, but be sure to check into the other balloon types - don't limit yourself to only 260s.
 160's are easier to twist imo - they make smaller sculptures (obviously) and aren't as in demand (because the general public pretty much only sees 260s) - but they're a great learning tool. Also, it's easier to get into multi-balloon sculptures using a combo of 260s and 160s. A lot to take in I guess, since you're just starting out - but you'll be twisting killer toons in no time.

Jolly Well, thanks for advice!
I'm currently using 11'', 16'' and 360'' Zeppelins in my act. I'll get some 160s from e-bay (no Qualatex baloon store in my area  ) and try to incorporate them into my act. Could you please recommend some web-sites for baloon twisting? I want to learn how to make more baloon figures.
