Circus Summer Camps!
Looking for a fun, exciting activity for your child this summer? Look no further, you've found the circus! Circus camps are a great way to have fun and make new friends while developing new skills.
A typical day at circus camp will include:
-
warm up games to develop body awareness, team building and trust
-
aerial disciplines (hoop, trapeze, hammock and silks)
-
30 minute lunch break (full day camps only)
-
coloring, games and other activities during a short break from circus lessons (full day camps only)
-
ground disciplines (tumbling, handstands, clowning, juggling, partner acrobatics, rola bola, diablo, object balance and devil sticks)
-
stage presence exercises
-
and more!
The students will work towards a performance which they will present to you, the parents, and any other family members who wish to attend. The showcase will run for the last 30 minutes on the final day of the circus camp session.
Please ensure your child has the following items with them for each day of circus camp:
-
lunch that does not require refrigeration (full day camps only)
-
a water bottle
-
close fitting clothing and multiple layers (ie. short and long sleeves so they are comfortable no matter the temperature of the room)
-
a hair tie for any children with long hair
Space is limited, register today!
