“Something about the circus stirs their souls.” Erin Morgenstern

Circus camp is intended to inspire a healthy lifestyle and cultivate the whole child: body, mind emotions and spirit. The circus arts uniquely cultivate the qualities of concentration and balance. Children will learn to work together as a team and individually as they participate in a wide range of activities – and they will have a lot of fun in the process.

Activities include: Aerial yoga/dance, safe archery, tumbling, hooping, juggling, obstacle course, singing, dancing, acting, yoga, walking globe (varies slightly weekly)
