How it works
Working in teams, participants are taught up to four circus skills and encouraged to develop a supportive learning environment in which it is OK to:
- Ask for help
- Share newly learned skills
- Acknowledge others' successes and performance
Each team will be asked to demonstrate their newly acquired skills in a showcase to be viewed by the whole group
Finally the teams come together as one group to undertake the Scimitar Throwing challenge!
