CIRCUS SKILLS WORKSHOPS FOR CHILDREN
INFANT, JUNIOR & PRIMARY SCHOOLS
Are you looking for new ways to inspire and engage your pupils through their learning experience, to improve their general well-being and mental health development?
Our circus workshops are specifically designed to challenge the fundamental movement skills necessary for key stage 1 and 2 (Years 1 to 6/aged 4 to 11 yrs), such as coordination, balance and focus. Using fun activities such as plate spinning, diablo and hula hoop, the children will build their self-confidence and learn how to interact with other children.
Our trainers are experts in working with children and ensure all participants have an experience to remember, whatever their ability.
SENIOR SCHOOL/SECONDARY (12-16yrs)
As the pressure mounts for the stressful examinations, circus skills can provide a healthy outlet allowing a greater and more focused learning capacity. Having to work together as a team and learning to support each other translates into the classroom. The beauty of circus skills is they cater for all ages and abilities, even those who dislike traditional sporting activities, and suffer from self-consciousness. The workshops really engage all the students on a level playing field.
