There’s much more to a child or teenager’s life than school – or at least there should be. Circus camps at Aerial Edge are a brilliant opportunity to broaden your horizons in multiple ways.

Through aerial and acrobatic activities (including their famous flying trapeze) you can:

• Get out of your head, where school keeps you, and keep a strong connection to your body, which supports healthy development and growth
• Make friends and have huge fun with them on the apparatus
• Explore creative self-expression, a crucial need in young people which is often suppressed in the academic-led school environment
• Enjoy physical activities which are all about collaboration, not competition, where you can thrive with our supportive, non-judgemental ethos
• Develop physical and mental coordination, concentration and confidence just by having fun with the equipment

If you’ve never done anything like this before, the supportive instructors will help you to find what you love. Everyone is capable of achieving cool aerial and acrobatic moves, step-by-step.

If you enjoy dancing, gymnastics, acrobatics, parkour or trampoline, circus activities will develop those skills further, while you learn new arts.

Most people love flying trapeze but if it’s not your thing, that’s ok. There are plenty of other aerial options – static and dance trapeze, silks, hoop, rope and hammock. There’s also acrobatics, group acrobalance, trampoline, parkour, juggling, tightwire, object manipulation and flow arts, including hula hooping.

Aerial Edge has been dedicated to developing people through circus since 2007. You can see videos of Youth Circus at www.aerialedge.co.uk or @aerial_edge on Instagram.
