We are happy to welcome new students when space in our classes allows.

Please note our classes are in high demand and in most cases you will be added to our waiting list until a place comes available. We will get you into a class as soon as we can!

If you have an additional support need or a disability and would like to take part, then we can arrange time before your first class to introduce you to our training space and also to understand your needs before your first class.

Please contact us on admin@adventurecircus.org to arrange this.
