Circus is for everyone who wants to be challenged, learn impressive circus and performance skills, get fit and have fun in a social and supportive environment. Combining the best aspects of sport and art, circus will improve fitness, coordination, strength and flexibility and build confidence.
NICA’s recreational courses are taught by experienced trainers and industry professionals in Australia’s best custom-built circus training facilities. Classes range from general circus to specific skills, and are designed for all ages, body types, skill and fitness levels. A 1 to 8 trainer/student ratio ensures the safety of participants. That means class sizes are small and fill quickly so book your place early to avoid missing out.
