About Us

Our Mission and Vision

Our mission at Circus Arts International is to provide high-level coaching, and ongoing, committed training in flying trapeze, aerial arts, and circus arts for individuals of all ages, capability levels, and skill levels - from complete beginners to seasoned circus arts performers and professionals - that is inclusive, empowering, and safe, and which expands and enhances the circus community.

In addition to continuing to grow and strengthen the current community, our combined mission, vision and passion is to extend the circus arts community to individuals and groups who are traditionally underrepresented and/or excluded from the circus arts, due to lack of access, lack of belief, general disability, socioeconomic challenges, or other reasons. We aim to create transformative experiences which inspire confidence and belief for all of our students - from first-time circus arts students to seasoned professionals. We believe everyone can find a home in circus.

Your Support

Consistent with our mission to extend the circus arts to all, your support of Circus Arts International will enable us to offer programming designed to benefit individuals and groups - children and adults, who:

  • have not previously had access to the circus arts, including: historically disenfranchised and socioeconomically disadvantaged groups, and individuals with special needs and disabilities
  • are interested in learning more about the fitness and wellness benefits of participation in the circus arts (i.e. cross-discipline athletes, recreational groups, school and university athletic programs, members of traditional gyms)
  • desire to build/improve their skills/proficiency in the circus arts
  • wish to improve or establish fitness habits, and
  • are consistent casual/recreational students and professional circus artists and aerialists who wish to continue training in various aspects of the circus arts, and are seeking a circus arts Home.

We are currently seeking assistance with funding to secure our new home in New York City. We hope you will consider making a donation to support our work, and your new circus arts home!
