Sapeur Pompiers fired up for the Tattoo!

Handy men to have around, the Paris Fire Brigade will be hanging around every which way at the world’s largest annual indoor show. This enthusiastic team of 37 gymnasts, famous around the world, will be wowing 60, 000 people as they display their immense strength and skilled balance.

All members work as regular firefighters in the Paris Fire Brigade. Every team member is a soldier in the military and has two intense practices a week – on top of their workload. It’s a big year for the Sapeur Pompiers who will be celebrating their 200th Anniversary this fall.

The team will also be offering a workshop for aspiring gymnasts during their stay in Halifax.
