Our Cirque Kids & Youth programming is designed specifically for ages 8-13 with strong body awareness, focus and an interest in learning the Circus Arts. Students will be introduced and continue their training in a variety of circus techniques, both in the air & on the ground. A strong emphasis will be made on mastering the fundamentals of various technical skills as building blocks for increased balance, coordination, flexibility and strength. Class will break off into smaller groups to accommodate different skill levels and for the safety of each child. Students are encouraged to remain true to Cirque School’s spirit—to create a supportive and noncompetitive environment. Periodic student performances occur though out the program allowing families to watch, cheer and enjoy their child in the circus ring!

Students will be taught by Cirque School’s trained circus professionals in a safe, supportive and fun environment, under the direction of Tristan Cunningham.

Our goal is to keep these young artists creatively moving their bodies while finding their own unique achievements.

Scholarships

Cirque School offers financial assistance to help families access the programs that are important to them. The scholarship pays for a portion of the session or class package, plus fees. It is primarily funded through the Jennifer Halper Scholarship Fund for Girls with Heart.

The Jennifer Halper Scholarship Fund for Girls with Heart is awarded to girls ages seven to twenty who show a deep desire for training in the Circus Arts and are passionate to learn new skills, improve their technique, and enhance their overall performance presence. It was established with the goal of young women being able to find personal success through artistic expression, and with the hope that they will pass that along to others in the future.

If you have questions about the fund, please email info@cirqueschool.com.
