Alvin Tam

Alvin Tam was born in Edmonton, Canada, where he became seduced by a dream at the age of 18 to travel the world, learn languages, and meet new cultures. Captivated by this vision, he discovered the National Circus School in Montreal and began training intensively for four years and eventually ended up crossing the globe several times as an acrobatic performer and coach. Alvin has performed in Japan, Brazil, France, England, Canada, United States, Mexico, Costa Rica, and Lebanon.

In 2002 Alvin received a call from the Cirque du Soleil to join the creation and performance of the $200 million Las Vegas show, KA. He spent five years working with the company, and in the meantime began his next dream, starting a business. With the creative minds of four other acrobats, Soul Acrobats, a company that makes inspirational products was born. Alvin has a deep passion for helping people transforming their fears while doing what they love.

He now speaks four languages and has traveled to over nine countries and 200 cities and currently lives in Las Vegas. Alvin’s next dreams are to build and fly an Iron Man suit, live to be 300 years old, and create a beautiful, loving family with his wife Jada.
