This course is aimed at school children aged 6-8 years and is the follow-up course to the “Circus Starter” course. It is not necessary to attend the preliminary course to participate.
We get off to a playful start and develop strength, coordination and agility in an age-appropriate way. We consolidate the basic acrobatic figures on the floor – rolls, wheels, headstands, handstands, pyramids. From time to time, we also try jumping on the trampoline and swinging in the air on the aerial silk.
The joy of movement and creativity in doing things together are just as important as the precise teaching of the basics. The children refine their self-awareness and strengthen their self-confidence: the best preparation for any further art of movement!
Clothing: Comfortable sportswear. Turntäppeli or barefoot. In the winter months, we recommend long training clothes for before and after the course. Children with long hair should have a hair tie with them.
Julian Bläsi
Julian has been a huge circus fan since childhood, when he attended summer camps at the Scuola Dimitri, and has taught himself many tricks in various disciplines. As a child, he practiced judo; later, he climbed with a SAC youth section; and then, via capoeira, he ended up doing breakdancing.
Julian Bläsi originally trained as a care specialist at the Sydefädeli retirement home and then worked for five years at the Klus Park senior center. As part of his alternative service, he worked at a daycare center, among other places. Through various projects at social institutions, he gained experience working with teenagers, which led him to youth work, where he has spent the last six years and, among other things, established a mobile circus program. Julian specializes in partner acrobatics and has participated in many international training camps and festivals. After completing his training as a community animator (HF), he has been working full-time as a circus educator. In recent years, he has led circus courses, including at the Robinson Children’s Circus.
