​
Please dress your child in clothing suitable for moving in! We always say a t-shirt long enough to tuck in as we will be upside down for LOTS of the class or a leotard! Long sleeves and leggings are better.
​
Please keep the belongings you bring with you to a minimum, however, if the children are a little anxious/worried then they are absolutely welcome to bring a soft toy with them that reminds them of home so that they feel comfortable.
Pack a reusable water bottle as the children will need to be hydrated and well energised! Please pack a packed lunch and lots of energy releasing snacks!
We are a NUT FREE ZONE due to allergies.
AERIAL HOOP/SILKS
The beautiful art of forming shapes with your body, while suspended from height, either on a hoop, rope, or silks.
ACROBATICS
The performance of extraordinary human feats of balance, agility and motor co-ordination.
JUGGLING
An amazing skill which uses advanced hand-eye co-ordination.
It is scientifically proven that circus skills can greatly assist in the development of children’s brains, as well aiding in the growth in communication and social skills.
