PE 1615
Introduction to Circus Arts

Course information provided by the 2022-2023 Catalog.

The circus arts are an exciting hybrid of art and sport. In this class you'll dive deep into the basics of a multitude of circus disciplines, including aerial apparatus (aerial fabric, lyra, and trapeze) partner acrobatics, handstands, juggling, and tight wire. The circus arts have been proven to increase brain matter, develop executive function, improve physical fitness, build strength, and create community. No experience is necessary to participate, and all skills can be modified for different levels of fitness.


Fees Course fee: $315 for materials and instruction.

When Offered Fall, Spring.
