Circus Harmony, St. Louis' only social circus, teaches the art of life through circus education. Kids of all ages can discover a world of fun at Circus Harmony classes and camps, featuring tumbling, dance, acrobatics, aerial arts and hula hooping. Drop-in juggling and unicycling programs are available, as are private and semi-private lessons. And for those children who want to prepare for a future under the big top, the nonprofit also offers personalized, pre-professional training.
A recent study from the American Youth Circus Organization proves the circus arts have a positive effect on a child's social and emotional learning, allowing kids to use what they learn in the ring to excel in the classroom!
