KIDS CLASSES (during school terms):

Kids Beginner Circus (5-12 years)
1.5 Hours
This class is for all primary school aged children from 5-ish and up. If we get more than 7 enrolling, we will break the class into two groups based on age and skill level. The class covers the basics of all ground and aerial skills. The perfect starting point for kids who want to work toward developing circus skills, and for those wanting a fun alternative to traditional weekend sport.

Ground:
Acro-balance & acrobatics – Acrobatics focuses on, using the mini-tramp, handstands and individually based acro skills (cartwheels, rolls, walkovers, etc..) and acrobalance works on balancing in pair and group combinations (group pyramids). Juggling, hula hoops, devil sticks, diablo, games and activities.

Aerials:
Aerials & tight rope – Climb the tissu, hang upside down from a trapeze and balance along a thin piece of wire. The main aerials involved will include lyra (aerial hoop), static trapeze and tissue (silks).

Kids Intermediate/Advanced Circus (7-12 years)
1.5 Hours
This class is for students who have developed strength and flexibility and a good understanding of aerials & acrobatics in the beginner’s course and are deemed by the instructors ready for the next level.

Teens Circus (12-18 years)
1.5 Hours
New skills, and great fun! For teens who are new to circus or travelling up from the kids classes. You’ll have the opportunity to learn ground skills such as hula hoops, acrobalance, tumbling, juggling, and more.
