We're having another community clothes swap this weekend! 👕👚🦺🥼🧥🩳👔👗👖🩱

Join trainers Em and Sim this Sunday 27 April 10:30am - 12:30pm and meet other members! Bring your pre-loved items (clothes/ shoes/ accessories/ costumes) to add to the mix and take home whatever work for you. Excess clothing will be donated to charity. Bring a nibbles plate too, if that feels fun!

Please note - this event is for marginalised genders only.

There's still a couple of spots left in our Handstands class, starting tonight 6:30pm! 💫 Our Handstands class is a fun and challenging way to build strength, coordination and balance in a supportive environment.

You’ll work through progressions to build confidence going upside down—whether it’s your first time kicking up or you're able to balance on your hands (even for moment!).

📅 Thursdays 6:15pm – 7:45pm | Starts today!
🔹 Prior skills: None. Beginners very welcome!

Book in on the Adult Classes page of our website ❤

Grab your own Women’s Circus Jumper! ❤️ The

Grab your own Women’s Circus Jumper! ❤️ The weather is getting cooler so we’re doing another pre order for our merch jumpers, designed by our member Kailin Liu 🥰 Choose from Adult Cropped Hoodies in black, Adult Crews and Youth Hoodies in black and pink. All jumpers only $50✨

Here’s what Kailin had to say about the design process:
“More than just many cute images collated together, I want to show that what Women’s Circus brings to us is more than just being ‘faster, higher, stronger’ from a traditional and technical lens of sports/circus. It brings to us the experience of letting go and finding ourselves, building relationships as human beings, facing our fear, trusting ourselves and others and most importantly, having fun!”

Order online on our Merchandise page (linked in our bio)! Pre orders close 5 May and we estimate the jumpers will be arrive 3 weeks after that. All orders are pick up only from the Drill Hall ⚡️
