This course is aimed at children aged 8-10 years and is the follow-up course to the “Circus Durch-Starter” course. It is not necessary to attend the preliminary course to participate.
We discover the possibilities of our bodies in a playful and age-appropriate way and train dexterity, body tension, flexibility and strength. This allows us to venture into increasingly complex movement sequences. We do somersaults and headstands, do cartwheels, balance, build human pyramids, practise handstands and much more. Together we deepen our work on various circus disciplines. The focus is on having fun and enjoying exercise and working on your coordination and dexterity.
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.
