About Bring The Fire Project
Founded in 2012 by Szymon Mamys and currently ran by both him and his partner Jess, Bring The Fire Project is the North-West’s leading fire and light performance company. The mission is to entertain, teach and connect communities across Merseyside with spectacular performances and workshops using fire, light and circus.
The project is becoming more and more popular, with a growing number of people getting involved due to the mental health, artistic and social aspects of the community they have created. In terms of performance, it’s a popular choice for parties and all types and sizes of events — bringing something exciting to the event to take it to the next level.

Szymon said: “The courses are fun and engaging and after 4 weeks people can learn the basics and experience the beauty of moving with fire. We also have advanced and private tuition for those wanting to get to the next level.

Community
Community is at the heart of what Bring The Fire Project does and many people have benefitted from the mental health aspect. Szymon and Jess have created a non profit initiative called The Flow Project — offering safe spaces for people to meet, practice and socialise. The Flow Project runs on Mondays (6.30-8.30pm) at The Black-E, is free to attend and anyone is welcome! In the summer they also run Liverpool Fire Sessions — large community events in Sefton Park.
Jess explained: “Fire dancing has been a massive tool for me to combat my own mental health issues — from getting in the state of flow and being engaged in an activity to socialising and being part of a community. When I met Szymon and became part of the project, we decided to offer a free space for people to meet and it’s been amazing. People love it!”

Szymon said: “It’s really fun performing for people at events and it really gets people talking — it’s breath-taking and a sure way to make your party or event stand out! We offer a bespoke service so whether you want a Viking themed fire show, illuminated stilt walking angels or a roaming Victorian circus troupe — we can pretty much tailor anything to what you want.”
