Introduction to Circus Arts

The circus arts are an exciting hybrid of art and sport. In this class you'll dive deep into the basics of a multitude of circus disciplines, including aerial apparatus (aerial fabric, lyra, and trapeze) partner acrobatics, handstands, juggling, and tight wire.

No experience is necessary to participate, and all skills can be modified for different levels of fitness.
