A Circus Smirkus school
residency is all of this.
It's an unforgettable experience, filled with
educational value. Our residencies are designed
to enhance learning skills by introducing
your students to a wide range of circus arts.
Along the way students gain confidence, focus,
and persistence.
Circus is a unique
and inspiring way to teach children, and to
promote community involvement at your school
or organization.
Our program also includes a curriculum guide,
jam-packed with circus related lesson plans
for art, music, science, history, math, and
language skills. Each lesson is designed
to meet one or more state standards.
The best part -- every Smirkus residency ends
with an exciting all-school circus performance!
Parents will love it! And we take care of
everything -- props, staging, music - the
works.
Why a Circus Residency?
Circus is a non-competitive physical art
form that extends easily to any part of the
school curriculum. Circus training requires
the same dedication, discipline, and hard
work of any sport, but it stresses collaboration
rather than competition.
