Coming up 👉 Mid-Term Circus Play (6–12yrs) – Two Themed Sessions! 🎪

Need a mid-term energy boost? We’ve got two exciting themed circus sessions where kids can tumble, climb, and swing their way through an action-packed afternoon—no prior experience needed!

Bring a friend and join the fun! These sessions are great for our current students who'd like an extra fun circus session, and those completely new to Women's Circus who'd like to try a circus class before enrolling in a term.

🐾 Animal Adventures – Friday 16 May
Kids will leap like lions, balance like flamingos, and swing through the jungle in this wild and playful session!

👻 Spooky Circus – Friday 13 June
Ghosts, ghouls, and giggles await! Kids will master their circus tricks with a spooky twist—perfect for little acrobats who love a frightful (but fun!) challenge.

📅 Dates: Friday 16 May & Friday 13 June
⏰ Time: 4:00pm – 5:15pm
💲 Price per session: $22
We encourage kids to dress up to the theme!
