Fun Circus classes / courses in Sydney

Circuses have been around for a few hundred years. Back when they started, the idea of a circus was purely for fun and enjoyment. Families would wait for months until a circus finally rolled into town so that they could have a wonderful day together. These early circuses provided hours of entertainment and a variety of different, mesmerising shows. Today, that spirit of entertainment and joy lives on. By taking a circus class, you’ll also learn how to bring happiness and wonder to fun activities like plate-spinning, juggling, hula hooping, dance, and aerials.

Of course, getting started can be intimidating. We all feel a little silly and uncomfortable when we take on the role of the showman. That’s where ClassBento’s list of the best circus classes in Sydney comes in. You’ll be able to learn from the best circus teachers in Sydney who have created their workshops to be inclusive and supportive. You’ll never feel out of place in a circus class because they’re designed to be some of the most welcoming and casual things to do in Sydney.

There are many different activities that fall under the circus umbrella (or should we say the circus tent?) That’s why you’ll find a range of different circus classes to choose from in Sydney. There are general circus training workshops which will teach you the basics like how to juggle and how to perform various tricks. Or, you can take an aerials and trapeze class that will get you off the ground and out of your comfort zone. There are even circus classes for kids if your child is the perfect candidate for circus school.

Circus classes are some of the best indoor activities Sydney has to offer. And they’re even better when you’re looking for fun things to do in Sydney for a group. There are circus classes specifically for hens parties or birthday parties. They’re also engaging and relaxing Sydney activities for groups of friends looking for something fun to do together on weekends. A hands-on circus training class is also a great addition to corporate wellness programs if you’re looking for ways to boost workplace wellbeing through fun activities. And, of course, they’re some of the best things to do in Sydney with kids. 

Regardless of which circus classes you sign up for, the spirit of entertainment and joy will be at the centre of your experience. Your passionate circus instructor will create the perfect environment for you to test your limits and get out of your comfort zone. No matter if you’re learning how to juggle or flying through the air, your knowledgeable circus teacher will be right there with you, giving you the support and encouragement you need to become an excellent circus performer. These classes always create a wonderful sense of community, so that you’ll really feel like part of a circus family by the end of it.
 

Health benefits of circus 

Without a doubt, there’s a benefit to learning challenging new things like juggling and aerials. Once you walk through the door, you’ll put your everyday life on hold for a little while and take on the persona of a circus performer. This practice of shedding responsibility for a while and focusing on something new will relax and recharge you in a wonderful way. By the time you’re ready to head back out into the world, you’ll have a renewed sense of confidence and playfulness. It’s just the refreshment you need to take on whatever challenges life throws at you!

Thank you Shiho for such a memorable birthday. The children (aged 3-6) had a lot of fun hooping and performing circus tricks. The parents have all said their child couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had at the party.

Our teacher had so much patients and expertise in teaching us to juggle. We had fun learning but she also brought hula hoops and spinning plates for us to play with. It was such a fun afternoon - thanks so much. Kate x

Kenny was amazing! He literally taught 5 uncoordinated people how to juggle well in an hour! It was so much fun - and oddly kind of meditative. I am going to call him for work team building next. Ps ask him to show you his skill it will blow your mind!

Juggling Class for Beginners

Shiho was a delightful teacher! She is professional but also a lot of fun! We had a one-hour juggling class for a corporate team activity for around 20 people. She was very engaging, very quickly getting a group of around 20 people very involved and focused on learning how to juggle. Our team really enjoyed the event and also learnt quite a bit about juggling in a very short time.
Thank you very much Shiho!

Kenny taught me how to juggle 3 balls during a 1 hour lesson. The class was short, intimate and well put together. I cannot wait to book more classes with my colleagues to help reduce stress levels and employee engagement.
