Winter Intensive
Spend your Winter playing, training, and performing with Circus Sanctuary in sunny Tucson, AZ. Expect to learn a variety of circus skills, gain an in-depth knowledge of your chosen apparatus, get comfortable with choreography, and develop your unique movement style. The first half of Intensive is spent building aerial and ground skills, the next half is spent on act creation and performance prep. This program culminates in a show where you'll perform an original act! This winter is your chance to level up, clean it up, and create something you feel good about.
