Andreas Anders-Wilkens was born in 1969 in Germany. In 1987 he has learned to ride a unicycle and since then he has been meeting up regularly with other unicyclists in order to explore the wide range of possibilities this unique tool offers. He supported his studies in humanities at university by acting as a freelance artist doing unicycling, stilt walking and juggling. He has taught unicycling to all kinds of people, amongst others to sports instructors studying at the University of Munich from 1994-97. He has also taught at many other places like primary schools, youth centers and adult education centers. In 2003 he became a teacher of German and English at German high schools and in the same year he founded a school for circus arts.
