“We have had 2 workshops now with James from Circus Sensible and both times have been absolutely brilliant. James kept our young people completely engaged for the whole session and they all left saying how fab it was. We will definitely be using Circus Sensible again and thoroughly recommend them.”

" I just wanted to say what a wonderful day we had on Friday. Steve was fantastic! It was a day full of fun but where the children were learning important skills too. It was lovely to see children who find it difficult to concentrate fully absorbed by what Steve was teaching them, concentrating to learn and perform the circus skills. It was also fantastic to see the children supporting each other in learning these skills. They thoroughly enjoyed circus school. The staff  enjoyed it too! I would fully recommend the day to anyone. Thank you  once again."

“ We absolutely loved having (Vegetable) Stu visiting us at our youth zone, all our young people really enjoyed it (Almost as much as us adults). We were all really impressed with Stu and his tricks and his ability to involve everyone. We look forward to working with you again in the future.”

" We had a workshop yesterday at school and I just wanted to write to thank you all very much!
The children had a fantastic day and loved all of the activities. The whole day was well pitched and well organised and a huge thank you to Mike who taught us all lots of new things! After the last year and a half where children have been restricted in where they can go and what they can do, this provided a real 'wow' day for them and I hope they remember it for a very long time to come! They are now attempting to juggle lots of other things on the playground so it looks like we might need to buy some more equipment for them to practise their skills. Once again, thank you for providing some joy to us all "

The Science of Circus

"Complex tasks such as juggling produce significant changes to the structure of the brain, according to scientists at Oxford University.
In the journal, Nature Neuroscience, the scientists say they saw a 5% increase in white matter - the cabling network of the brain." In brief, learning a new skill such as Juggling can hard wire our brains to work better and faster! Circus skills help develop and improve concentration skills. This is particularly evident in those children with shorter attention spans. When we run Circus skills workshops in schools the teachers are often amazed that one or more children who usually have a problem concentrating are doing better than anyone else in the class! Learning Circus skills also offers great benefits in terms of physical co-ordination and physical fitness. Circus workshops fit very well into the school curriculum under PE and co-ordination development. In fact there are many areas where Circus workshops offer great opportunities for curriculum enrichment.

Activities such as Circus skills have been used with great success as an educational tool, as an aid to learning as well as therapeutically with children at risk and with children with special needs. Autistic children have been observed to respond particularly well to Circus skills in schools. Circus skills are an opportunity for children and adults to discover and develop skills such as Concentration, Information retention, Concept visualisation, hand eye co-ordination and self awareness. These skills can then be used in many other settings including social situations and in conventional educational settings whilst learning the core subjects.
