Drop the kids off with us for a fun-filled night at the circus school!
We start off with coach-led games to blow off some energy, then 90+ minutes of supervised open play on the aerial circus equipment. To wrap up the night, we grab our pillows and/or stuffies and get to munch on free popcorn while we watch a movie projection on top of the mats.

The Show Team trains year-round (July 2024 - June 2025) to create a full-length circus show performed at The Rising's Studio to a public audience every June.
We encourage ALL who may be interested to attend our audition. Even if you don’t meet all of our requirements yet, we would like to see you! You just never know! And it will help you better prepare for next year’s audition should you wish to try again.

flexibility, strength, tumbling, dance, acting, and ability to learn and perform 2 short sequences on 2 of the 4 apparatus - silk, hoop, hammock, or trapeze.
