The Intensive Program is for beginner/intermediate level students who wish to improve their circus technique and performing skills in a 10 month long program. The Professional Track Program is a 9-month program which hones both general circus technique and performance skills and works towards creating an act. Applications for the 2012 - 2013 programs will be available Jan 2012.
The Residency Program is for advanced pre-professional and professionals who wish to work individually on specific acts with a supportive community. Enrollment is ongoing.
