It is no secret that the bane of many a lawyer's existence is a demanding client who expects you to bend over backwards to please them.

But in the case of this particular young lawyer, bending over backwards - and indeed tying herself into human knots and various other impossibly limber positions - is all part of the package and something which she actually loves to do.

Amy Rowland, a young banking and finance lawyer at Mallesons Stephen Jaques, is no ordinary lawyer with a Saturday golfing habit: she also happens to work part-time as one half of an acrobatic duo named BodyKraft.

The other half is an equally strong and flexible stockbroker, Matt Young, and such is the nature of their growing popularity that the two have been shortlisted to perform at a wedding in a Turkish palace in Istanbul in front of around 600 guests.

While the identity of the soon-to-be wedded Turkish couple with a penchant for acrobats remains a mystery, Folklaw is slightly envious of the pair's talents, which will no doubt lead them to far-flung and exotic corners of the world.

But don't rely on our commentary - watch them for yourselves!
