What We Do

There can be more to circus than just training and performing!

Since 2020, we have offered nearly a thousand classes and workshops in mindful movement informed by the principles of Social and Emotional Learning for over three hundred students. We have been at the forefront of integrating SEL and circus arts in Northern Nevada.

Community Events

We bring lessons in aerial arts based on the Aerial Equanimity Aerial-SEL method to the community! Through partnerships with the City of Reno, the City of Sparks, Washoe County, and local community organizations, we provide opportunities for youths in Reno and Sparks to experience social and emotional learning through aerial arts.

Aerial-SEL Workshops

We facilitate on-site workshops for various age groups! These workshops and series are the foundations of many of our community partnerships with local organizations.

Circus-SEL Programs

We bring panoramic programs exploring SEL in the context of various movement disciplines including aerial arts, yoga, acro, juggling, and flow arts to our partners.

Community and Training

We connect driven students with expert instructors and also offer resources and instruction in the Aerial Equanimity methodology!

SEL-Yoga Classes

We provide classes in yoga based on the SEL*F methodology of Breathe for Change!
