courses that connect you to real life employment
Circus Maniacs believes in supporting each artist's unique development as an individual. Our professional circus arts training programmes are therefore flexible and personally tailored.
We do not run full-time courses geared up towards 'qualifications' as we know qualifications are of no real bearing to performers seeking employment within the circus industry. In fact many of our students believe that a pre-structured, more generalised course would only frustrate and distract them from meeting their primary goals.
If you want to gain employment in circus and many related performing arts, what is essential is achieving a good standard of physical performance skills; offering a great product (act/show); working hard to promote yourself and having a good professional attitude; ascertaining some good contacts; plus having a spoonful of good luck along the way.
the courses
At Circus Maniacs we offer four course options - full-time and part-time, and courses for younger professionals and those seeking tailor-made intensives. Our circus training programmes are for performers and artists who:
- Are looking for specific circus training relevant to the international circus and performing arts industries.
- Require fast-track, personally tailored circus training programs; i.e. just the relevant bits, not general courses.
- Need the space, time, plus professional support to turn their ideas for new exciting projects into a reality.
- May need the support we offer to get started.
