Circus Arts training at NYCAA is an exhilarating, artistic and unique experience for people of all ages, fitness levels and body types. Courses are oriented toward students and performers who wish to explore and hone circus art skills as seen in contemporary shows such as those performed by Cirque du Soleil. The curriculum is challenging, but fun.
By participating, students strengthen their bodes in ways they never thought possible, increase flexibility and stamina, and improve body alignment and core stability.
The curriculum is designed for skill levels ranging from novice to elite. Clear, concise instruction eases participants into new skills one step at a time. The goal of each course is to build competency in the technical and creative aspects of its respective art form. Classes are divided into workgroups based on skill level, experience and achievement in previous classes, with approximately three - five students per instructor. Students may participate in any course for which they have fulfilled the prerequisites. Please contact the main office for additional information about skill level placement.
