This course is aimed at pre-school children aged 4-6 years and is the follow-up course to the “Zirkuszwergli” course. It is not necessary to attend the preliminary course to participate.
We playfully develop strength, coordination and flexibility and practise the basic acrobatic figures on the floor – rolls, wheels, headstands and handstands. During the course, we get to know the various circus disciplines and try them out together.
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 big circus fan since his childhood, when he attended vacation courses at the Scuola Dimitri, and has taught himself many tricks in various disciplines. He did judo as a child, later climbed in an SAC youth section and then ended up breakdancing via capoeira.
Julian Bläsi originally trained as a care specialist at the Sydefädeli retirement home and then worked at the Klus Park retirement center for 5 years. As a community service volunteer, he worked in a crèche, among other places. He gained experience with teenagers through various projects in social institutions and ended up in youth work, where he has worked for the last six years and set up a mobile circus program, among other things. Julian specializes in partner acrobatics and has taken part in many international training camps and festivals. After training as a community animator HF, he now works full-time as a circus educator. In recent years, he has already led circus courses, including at the Robinson children’s circus.
