His moves include balancing on the top of his head, bulging out his shoulder blades, and displacing his abdomen. Esengulov himself describes his unique style as a combination of Bruce Lee moves with the precise actions of a robot.

Combining more than contortionism with dance, Esengulov’s signature move grabbing his windpipe and shifting it from one side of his throat to the other.
