Circus Workshops
For 8 – 15 year olds
A wonderful opportunity for novices and those with experience, to enjoy the thrill and excitement of the big top in a safe, fun, learning environment.
This is a challenging physical course that focuses on the techniques used by circus performers on the ground and in the air. You will experience the thrill of practicing new skills on a suspended circus rig including static trapeze (single and double  trapeze that do not swing), lyra (hanging hoop) and aerial silks (hanging stretch fabric).
The workshops cover a wide range of circus arts. In the 5 day week one course students will also have the opportunity to learn juggling. The 3 day workshop in the 2nd week will have a stronger aerial skills focus.  This is a great confidence builder with coaches who are committed to helping each student reach their fullest potential.
