Amy Lang

      

 

Since 2006, Lang has been one of Australia’s best Acrobatic talents, forming a particularly dynamic duo with Elizabeth Jacobs along the journey.

Lang has truly dominated the Women’s Trio competitions at National level, winning every title she has competed in since 2007 – a total of six titles.

She also competed at the Pat Wade Classic in 2013, a competition which saw her finish runner-up, and was then selected for her first World Championships in 2014, where she finished sixth in a very impressive performance.
