Circus Arts
tutors: Bronwyn and Mike Baker, Carlene Newall and Eve Gordon

This is a challenging physical course that focuses on the techniques used by circus performers on the ground and in the air. Through physical warm-ups, acrobatics and tumbling, you will develop your motor skills, strength, flexibility and endurance. You will experience the thrill of practising new skills on a suspended circus rig that includes static trapeze (single and double trapezes that do not swing), lyra (hanging hoop) and aerial silks (hanging stretch fabric).
