He started a general training program, at age 4, with his father and grandfather. Both spent their entire lives living and performing for the circus. At 6 years old, Alan made his debut in the circus doing floor acrobatics and clowning. By 10 he had learned trapeze, which he performed for 3 more years. After that, Alan followed in his grandfather\u2019s footsteps and began performing Maromba, (like a high wire act except, the stunts are performed on a rope suspended between springs). However, Alan loved to be in the air. He returned to the air in 1998 when he changed his act to Aerial Acrobatic Flying Silks and after 2 years was invited to audition for a new show in [Las Vegas].\u201d<\/span>\u00a0\u2013 Bio from\u00a0AlanjSilva.com<\/p>\n<span class=\"fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-3 hover-type-none\"> <img src=\"https:\/\/performerstuff.com\/mgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Alan_Silva_Web.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"img-responsive\"\/><\/span><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-one-full fusion-layout-column fusion-column-last fusion-spacing-yes section-body-post\" style=\"margin-top:;margin-bottom:;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\"><h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Watch Alan Silva&#8217;s Interview<\/strong><\/h4>\n<div class=\"fusion-video fusion-youtube\" style=\"max-width:600px;max-height:350px;\"><div class=\"video-shortcode\"><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QDYtiD41-qc?wmode=transparent&autoplay=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-one-full fusion-layout-column fusion-column-last fusion-spacing-yes section-body-post\" style=\"margin-top:;margin-bottom:;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\"><h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Want More Performer Stuff Pro Series?
