16-21 Class
Our 16-21 class is suitable for students coming from a background of circus, gymnastics, trampolining or similar disciplines, who also have an interest in combining circus skills with theatrical performance and creativity. Spaces are offered through invitation, or prospective students can express interest and attend a trial session.
About Our 16 – 21 Class
The 16-21 class has a dual focus of skill development and creative exploration and looks at combing circus skills with other performance elements such as devising, theatre, dance, movement, music and more.
Students are encouraged to explore their own, unique, creative journeys, and will be given opportunities to develop these skills through games, devising tasks, and performances in both private and public settings.
Classes consist of a thorough warm-up, stretch and conditioning session before progressing into skill work. Students will then work on fundamental disciplines such as handstands, tumbling, and juggling before beginning to work in their chosen areas of interest.
Students are encouraged and taught to train independently, while being challenged and supported to develop their own research ability into what they would like to learn, and what is needed to progress further.
These classes are designed to push and develop students with an interest in performance and creativity and are perfect for young adults looking to pursue circus and professional performance training at a higher level.
Further full-time options that students can consider, or use our sessions to develop their training for are the BTEC course, and our Higher Education. Degree course
