Learn Control, Precision and Safety

This page introduces you to Fire Eating Training with professional Fire arts instructor Andrey Das.
You will learn what Fire eating really is, how to approach it safely, and how this discipline complements Fire Breathing Training.

The complete Fire Eating course is available here: Fire Eating Training – Full Course.
All equipment and Fire props are handmade in France, designed specifically for professional and aspiring Fire performers.

You can contact Andrey in English, Spanish or Italian for any question about training, custom props or collaborations.

Fire eating is not about “eating” the flame in a literal sense.
It is a set of techniques of control, illusion and flame management, where the performer manipulates the Fire close to the face and mouth while protecting the body at all times.

Because the flame is so close to sensitive areas, risk management and protocol are absolutely crucial.
This is why structured, professional Fire eating training is highly recommended before attempting any trick.

Andrey is an experienced Fire arts instructor, performer and maker of custom Fire props.
He has trained more than 500 students in Fire breathing, Fire eating and Fire safety, working with artists from Europe, Australia, the United States and the Middle East.

His teaching style is clear, structured and accessible, with a strong focus on safety, progressive learning and real-world performance conditions.

Understanding Heat and Flame Behaviour

Before handling torches near the face, you will study how flames behave, how heat rises and how to position your body to reduce exposure.

Safe Handling of Fire Eating Torches

You will learn how to hold, light, extinguish and cool your torches, as well as how to move with them on stage or during photoshoots.

Core Fire Eating Techniques

Step-by-step exercises to approach the mouth with the flame, control the duration of exposure and build a clean, professional visual effect.

Emergency Protocols and Risk Management

Detailed instructions on how to react if something goes wrong, how to use safety gear, and how to work with assistants or crew members.

From Training to Performance

Guidance on building a Fire eating routine, integrating it with Fire Breathing, and adapting your skills for stage, video or Fire photography.

Fire eating requires specific torches and materials, designed to offer suitable absorption, controlled flames and durability.
All props offered by Pyroplasticien are handmade in France, tested and built from years of experience.
