Biography
Alexis is a self-taught diabolist from Belgium, he started playing diabolo at the age of 20 years old. To become an artist, he trained with international artists throughout his performances.
Before becoming an artist, Alexis worked 9 years as an electronics engineer and 3 years as manager of an engineering team. The goal of his work was to discover problems and solve them, hanks to this mind set and his passion, he was able to discover different ways of playing diabolo but his interest focused on the Vertax. This is the way to practice the diabolo horizontally. Alexis is known for his unlimited creativity and imagination in diabolo practice.
He pushed the boundaries even further by starting to play with a horizontal diabolo and a vertical diabolo on the same string. An international diabolo forum decided to name this technique Galexis, mixing Galaxie and Alexis because it had never been done before.
