Circus Magic - Workshops

Workshops

Circus Magic workshops can teach your group to juggle with balls, scarves, clubs or juggling rings! We also include tuition in spinning plates (bottom centre/top left), diabolo (middle left), devil sticks, pedal-go’s, unicycles, poi, contact balls and balloon modeling - your guests get models to take home as a souvenir of the experience!
We can also bring along a free standing tight rope (bottom left).

Circus Magic now owns a Bouncy Castle - perfect to set the scene at any circus themed event!

We provide a few general types of circus skills workshop, but we will generally change any of them to suit your needs...

	Formal Workshop - Schools, Colleges, Youth Groups Our formal workshop starts with between 20 and 40 minutes demonstration, where we showcase all of the equipment that is going to be used. There are a number of mini displays between each tuition session to build the enthusiasm of the learners. We find this makes them want to learn hard in order to achieve the new skills they're being shown. The amount of time taken for the demonstration depends on the amount of time booked for the group and the people that are about to learn. The initial display then leads on to some tuition sessions, where we try to encourage the guests to play with the toys and self-learn while our experienced staff advise and encourage. Safety is discussed throughout the demo section to try to minimize the risk of accident. One extra that we can provide is to teach your group how to quickly and easily make their own juggling balls (bottom right). We provide all the materials and the group can take anything they've made home with them. For a group of children especially, this is a really constructive way to kick off a workshop session. We also bring along stilt walking costumes so that the people who have learnt stilt walking that day can show off their skills in a fancy costume.
Casual Workshops - Festivals, Fetes, Carnivals, Fun Days Our casual workshops are mainly directed at festivals, carnivals and fête style occasions. Usually we ask the event organizer to mark off an area an area (normally outside), where any person attending the event can come along and pick up and learn whatever toy they like. There is no formal demonstration for this workshop but all instructors will be regularly giving impromptu mini displays, while going over learning tips.
	The Lone Juggler - Birthdays, Scouts, Cubs, Brownies If there are just a small amount of people wanting to learn you can hire just one juggler/performer to come along and teach and entertain. This takes the same format as a formal workshop just on a much smaller scale. You will still be entitled to all the same equipment and demonstration and just as much fun. Team Building - Corporate Circus skills can be a great team building experience. We will normally start with a brief demo of what were going to teach then stand in a large circle with the group as everyone learns together. After the tuition we sit down with the group and as a group they get to make their own jugging balls together which they can keep as a souvenir and to keep practicing their new tricks with.
