Why juggle?

Circus skills can develop hand/eye co-ordination, physical fitness, balance, reflexes and rhythm. 

Circus skills offer a series of challenges. Whether participants are balancing, throwing, catching or spinning, the process of learning such skills teaches them how to set goals and achieve them with patience and perseverance. 

Circus skills provide opportunities for exploration and growth of kinaesthetic intelligence and self-expression; encouraging self-esteem and confidence. Circus also offers the opportunity to work with others through skills that can be achieved with a partner or, through peer to peer teaching as students share their knowledge with others.
