This class introduces a wide range of circus activities. Every class starts with an aerobic warm up (e.g. games such as "tiggy", "ship and shore" and "cat and mouse") and full body stretch. Children work on foundational tumbling skills each class, and then rotate in groups through a variety of circus skills including manipulation (juggling, diabolo, hula hoops), aerials (tissu, static trapeze, aerial hoop, cloudswing), tight wire, chinese pole, adagio, hoop diving, and trampoline. Circus is a great way to develop strength, flexibility, confidence and coordination.
