If you haven't already, you've got one week to catch one of the hottest, most astounding shows here in San Jose.
TOTEM, the traveling Cirque du Soleli show is still mesmerizing audiences, and will be until April 15th.
There is not a moment in the show that I was not amazed, smiling, or actually Oohing and Ahhing at the amazing talent these performers have.
Like many Cirque shows, there is also plenty of humous moments thrown throughout the show.
A couple of favorite moments from the evening..
The "Russian Bars": Just take a look at this photo. Do you see the thin little bouncy bar and how high off the ground these guys are? They jump and twist high in the air and magically (something tells me crazy amounts of practice has something to do with it) land each time back on the bars. This performance had me holding my breath.

Another performance I enjoyed was the five girls on unicycles. I don't think I blinked during this part. I like to just TRY to imagine myself in the situation. Having to think about keeping the rhythm with your feet and making sure you're at a certain distance… ignore the audience… and TOSS!CATCH! Don't fall! Yeah I could totally do it. ;)
