Happy International Day of Older Persons! To celeb

Happy International Day of Older Persons! To celebrate we’re throwing the spotlight on Performing Older Women's Circus (POW).

Here’s a few highlights from their performance at @whitenight in 2016 (ps many of these performed are STILL in POW).

Started in 1995 as a project from the Women’s Circus, POW soon established its identity as a community/social circus in its own right. POW supports people aged 40+ to discover the joy of circus skills while proving that circus, movement and play are definitely for all ages. Many participants (and even trainers) are in their 60s and 70s!

In 2021 Women’s Circus were delighted to officially partner with POW, supporting them administratively so they can keep doing what they do best - connecting, playing and creating.

Here’s to you POW and all your wonderful founders, trainers and participants.

Find out more about POW via the link in our bio. 🎪👏🎊🎉
