Life Circus is the outreach arm of the Womens Circus, life circus works with women, children and men.

We are delighted to introduce social circus classes for kids and teens.

Our programs are based on a framework of participation, co-operation, trust, team work and positive risk taking.

Circus, what is it?

kids & teens circus program

Circuses are a form of entertainment, socialisation and exercise that includes something for just about everyone.

The very nature of a circus is to provide a source of fun and entertainment.

You don’t need previous experience, any particular body shape, fitness, flexibility or even coordination – all you need is enthusiasm to find out how much your body is truly capable of!

What do you do in the circus?

Our classes offer the opportunity to experience a wide range of circus skills, including juggling, acrobalance, rope climbing, tight wire walking, pyramids, trapeze, aerial ring and cloud swing to name a few. Participants will learn clever tricks with ribbon sticks and hula hoops, gravity-defying balances, as well as juggling, stilt walking, tumbling, and much more.

Why would I be interested in it?

It is a way of involving young people in activities that boost self confidence and promote team work. It is a way for people to rely on and use each others’ support. It is a way of promoting a sense of mastery and challenging the limits within which we live our lives. Over a period of time our circus programs can influence behaviour in very positive ways, building emotional strength and resilience and improving physical outcomes.

This occurs not just through increased physical activity but also through gaining knowledge about health and a desire to respect and look after one’s body.
