Building Community Through Circus Arts

Program description

Building Community Through Circus Arts will show how circus arts can promote community and collaborative problem solving.  Our teaching artists connect the social emotional learning concepts to our dance curriculum.  Students will focus on ideas associated with self-awareness, self-management, relationship building, social awareness and responsible decision-making through the use of aerial silks, trapeze or partner acrobatics.   By the end of every class, students are celebrating each other’s successes and have either created bridges or strengthened their connections to each other.
