About
Real skills, real fun — and the perfect place to grow.
This Foundation class is for kids aged 8–12 who are ready to dive into the world of circus. Whether they’re brand new or have a little experience, this two-hour weekly session offers a mix of challenge, creativity and excitement – all in a safe, non-competitive environment.
Students rotate through a range of circus activities that build strength, confidence, and coordination, including:
🎪 Aerial skills (lyra, trapeze and silks)
🎪 Object manipulation (juggling, hoops, diabolo)
🎪 Balancing skills (tightwire, handstands)
🎪 Acrobatics (tumbling, trampoline, pyramids)
This class is perfect for kids who love to move, try new things, and stretch themselves (sometimes literally!). Our experienced trainers create a supportive space where everyone is encouraged to grow at their own pace.
What they’ll gain:
💫 Solid foundation in circus technique
💫 Greater physical confidence and control
💫 Teamwork, focus and resilience – skills that last a lifetime
Each session begins with a group warm-up, then students break into smaller groups to explore different skills and apparatus. No two weeks are the same!
A fantastic way to build circus skills — and self-belief.
What to Wear and Bring
Safety and comfort help kids do their best. Please support our safety culture by following these guidelines:
- Hair: Tie long hair back before class.
- Jewellery: Leave all jewellery at home.
- Clothing: Wear stretchy, close-fitting clothes (no zips or pockets) like leggings or shorts and a t-shirt. Circus Arts t-shirts are available to purchase.
- Footwear: Runners into the building; sticky socks or bare feet for training (sticky socks available at reception).
- Water: Bring a clearly labelled, non-glass water bottle.
- Punctuality: Students who arrive more than 15 minutes late can’t join the class that day due to missing the warm-up.
Thanks for helping us keep circus safe, fun, and focused for everyone!
