Circus Skills 11AM-11:55AM

Class Description

Circus Skills are great for students who love to challenge their bodies in an unconventional way, who are more drawn to cooperative activities where students work together rather than competitive activities like team sports. It's fantastic for developing proprioception (your body's orientation to itself) and the vestibular system (your body's orientation in space). We will start with Stretches, Tumbling, Headstands, and Handstands, which are designed to improve their strength, coordination, balance, and awareness. After that, they can choose between Juggling and Balance Boards. If there's time, and depending on their comfort level with each other, we may get to Partnered Acrobatics and Acroyoga, where they will learn to carry each others' weight!
