Contemporary Circus Step 2 is a new continuation course for those who have trained in circus for 2-4 semesters but have yet to turn 12. The continuation course gives you more space to focus on your favourite discipline. We also spend a little more time on physical preparations, such as strength and flexibility, which are needed when you want to develop further in your discipline. The goal is that when you turn 12, you should be ready to go on to one of our continuation courses: the Cirkör Course, Aerial Acrobatics, Acrobatics & Trampoline or Lines & Wires.

Participant Contemporary Circus Step 2
The course contains
Acrobatics
Acrobatics is one of the cornerstones of circus and contains many different disciplines. However, when we refer to acrobatics in the courses, we usually mean doing somersaults, handstands and performing various tricks on the floor.
Partner acrobatics
In partner acrobatics, two or more people collaborate in lifting, balancing, throwing and catching each other. We call those who lift "undermen" and those who are getting lifted "flyers".
Juggling
Juggling can be throwing balls or clubs into the air and balancing feathers or sticks with plates on the body. Many jugglers call themselves object manipulators.
Tightrope walking
There are many different types of lines, ropes and wires you can walk on: high, low, tight or slack. Many use long poles to help maintain balance. Balancing on a rope is often combined with acrobatics and dance.
Aerial acrobatics
An aerial acrobat performs tricks using, for example, a trapeze, rope, ring or silks. The tricks can consist of swinging, balancing and moving between different poses.
