Winter Circus Skills Retreat

In this this specialized February version of our sold out summer Circus Skills Retreat we are offering three of our most popular focus areas – hoop (Lyra) (intermediate level), aerial fabric (intermediate level) or chinese pole (beginner / intermediate).

Each morning we’ll share a warm up and then you’ll spend 2 hours in your focus area.  In the afternoon you’ll get to mix it up each day and try a variety of other aerials and circus skills including trampoline, hand balancing, rope, spanish web, straps, aerial sling and trapeze, and try more advanced aerial skills over our pit.  The day will end with a cool down and body maintenance session.

This workshop is a great way to rediscover your love of circus, remember skills you might not have done for a while, and try out new things when you are ready.
