AcroMongolia

Lkhagva Ochir Erdene Ochir —known as Ochir—began his training as a contortionist at the age of 9. Rooted in Mongolia’s deep performance tradition, he went on to tour internationally for many years as a featured artist with Cirque du Soleil, performing in both KOOZA and CRYSTAL.

​

He has been awarded the Polar Star Medal and named an Honoured Artist of Mongolia—two of the country’s highest distinctions in the arts. Together, they recognize his status as a national treasure, both at home and abroad.

​

He leads AcroMongolia’s Stage Artist Program and teaches contortion to selected children in Mongolia through a professional training pathway (non-recreational). In addition, he organises international retreats and workshops with Marion Chan, where he delivers contortion-specific instruction and co-teaches handstand training.

Marion began her movement journey later in life, after working for several years as a trader in the City of London.

 

She is the coach behind AcroMongolia’s online education, including the Handstand Academy, online courses, and personalised training programs.

 

She has trained extensively in handstand and flexibility with internationally recognised coaches and continues to refine her approach through ongoing practice. Her work focuses on building clear, structured training progressions for adult bodies, with particular attention to safety, nervous-system regulation, and injury-aware practice.

 

Marion designs, structures, and delivers all of AcroMongolia’s online training content and personalised programs, and co-teaches handstand training during selected international retreats and workshops.
