You are here: Circus Classes > Beginners
Ages 6 to 24Beginners 




The Beginner Class acts as an entry level to the Seriously Circus program for young people over the age of six. The classes are a fun introduction to a variety of new circus skills and, for many, their first experience with aerials. The classes include games, warm ups, stretching, strength, and fun group activities. Come along and learn all the skills of the circus including tissu, static trapeze, lyra, juggling, hoops, acro balance and tumbling.

This two hour class is the perfect length for most students to develop their skills over the term. However, there is a one hour 'Taste of the Circus' class available on Saturdays for younger children.

The one hour 'Taste of the Circus' class may also be suitable for current Rosellas students wishing to make the transition into the beginners program.
