Ok, I want to do this.
What is Boot Camp?
Are you interested in working hard and seeing if you have the chops for circus work? Do you have existing skills that you d like to hone and build into an act? This workshop is designed for students with previous experience in the circus arts. Instructors include a variety of NECCA coaches who will be selected to match the skills areas of accepted applicants. Skill areas include, but are not limited to, hand balancing/contortion, partner acro/adagio, chinese pole, wire walking, juggling/manipulation, lyra/hoop, fabric/rope and trapeze. NEW THIS YEAR: swinging trapeze, and the opportunity to work with founders Elsie & Serenity Smith!
Boot Camp includes 3 hrs of group training per day, which includes warm up and stretching, act creation, conditioning and physical theater work. Three afternoons a week each student will receive a 1 hr private lesson. Students will also have several hours per day to train in an Open Studio format to practice the skills they learn in the workshop. The workshop ends with a performance of acts created during the three week program.

"Growing up, I was a quiet, unathletic bookworm/daydreamer... I'm now taking regular trapeze classes at NECCA and I feel happier, healthier, and stronger than ever - and I love my body and what it can do! "
