About the Juggling & Cirkus Arts Classes
Circus is a great art form which combines physical discipline and fitness with mental agility and creativity. Bindlestiff Family Cirkus co-founder Stephanie Monseu is offering two consecutive eight-week sessions at Morris Memorial in Chatam, New York, for youth aged 8 and up.
Students will be introduced to three-object juggling with balls, scarves, rings, and clubs, and will learn solo and partner juggling patterns. They'll also explore manipulative miscellanea like diabolos, balancing feathers, plate spinning and poi; we'll work on stilts, rolla bolla, low tightwire, and rolling globe.
