Aerials/Circus (5-7yrs)

This class is the perfect introduction to the world of circus. Participants will learn a range of circus skills including object manipulation, aerials, acro-balance, tumbling and more.

Aerials (7-9yrs, 10-12yrs & Teens)

Students will focus on silks, lyra and static trapeze and develop the basic skills on these apparatuses as well as focus on building the strength, flexibility and aerial awareness required for the higher level class. Participants will develop more advanced tricks, create routines and develop performance quality as they progress, with the aim to eventually invite them to join the Aerials performance troupe.

Aerials Troupe

Students who show a high level of aerial skills, strength, flexibility and most importantly dedication to the training will be invited to join the Aerials Circus Performance Troupe, and get the opportunity to get out of the training space and onto the stage.

Aerials & Troupe are offered as term classes only to ensure the skill progression.
Bookings must be made by the first two weeks of the term.

Coaches have developed progressions for all starting abilities, beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Classes are tailored to the skill of the individual student to ensure they each develop more advanced skills throughout the term as well as higher performance quality to eventually join the Performance Troupe.

Something we always wanted to do and loved every minute of it. Highly recommended. The instructors guide you the whole way.

Allan O’Connell

Awesome. The staff and instructers are so friendly and patient, the flying trapeze is one of the jewels of this place, alongside the rock climbing, parkour/trampolining, and silks area. There is even a little cafe to relax and a fantastic circus theme park inside the building for your little ones to play!
