We won't tell your mom.

Run away to the circus. We won't tell your mom.

Find your discipline.

We teach the full spectrum of circus arts, from first-time flyers to seasoned performers.

  • Silks - Lyra - Rope - Straps - and more to come!
    We’ve hired the best instructors in town to give you confident and personal coaching. Regardless of your experience, we will find the right class for you and give you the fundamental skills to progress at your own speed.

  • Handstands - Flexibility - Acting training - Ballet - Group Fitness - and more!
    The wide variety of ground training is what sets us apart from every other gym in town. We offer classes to help you learn new skills, become a better performer, and stay in shape. Our ground classes allow for larger group classes and a lot more energy and movement.

  • New to the circus? Interested in having an affordable, stable, and reliable training time to build a habit and a fun community of classmates? Our 11-week performance program is designed for students who have never been around circus arts before or new to a discipline. You spend weeks 1-9 learning the basics of entries, exits, positions, conditioning, and strength training. You will also learn and develop a 2-3 minute performance piece as a class. Week 10 is tech rehearsal and week 11 is your final test - a recital in front of your friends and family! This is a low cost, low pressure way to train, build a group of friends, and perform in the circus for one night!

  • Train on your own time with rig rentals starting at $10/hr. We keep it cheap to keep you coming back. Open Gym time only available during scheduled times. Unlimited open gym time available with monthly membership.

  • Ages 7–17.
    We're building circus arts programming for young performers. Get on the list, and we'll let you know when registration opens.

Change the way you feel about pain.

Fun fact: Circus is as hard and painful as it looks. But that doesn’t mean you can’t become a top notch circus performer! The pain, bruises, and callouses you earn from consistent training will eventually go away. Leading you to understand and appreciate your body and it’s incredible resilience and recovery ability.

Pain is part of the process. Change the way you feel about it, and amazing things are going to happen.

We only get one shot at this life. I decided a long time ago that I was going to live now. Not for the money or the status, but for the experience and joy that life can offer.
— Mark Radcliffe, Founder
