Throughout civilization the circle has always been important….gathering in a circle, a perfect geometric form, allows us to look into
each other's eyes on an equal footing and encourages fairness, trust and collaboration. From the Latin word meaning a circle comes
our word circus: the place where creative games are performed and vital skills such as coordination, strength and balance are perfected.
In this course aimed at children between 5 and 10 years old, we will learn to express ourselves with our mind and our body using different
circus disciplines: acrobatics, acrobatic lifts, juggling, balancing...
Through physical conditioning, using playful and educational methodology, we will explore the power of teamwork for personal and collective development.
