About CircEsteem
CircEsteem is an exciting youth program that honors the timeless art of circus. “Clowning around” sets students free from the ordinary and open to the extraordinary. This attitude underpins everything from spinning plates to juggling. Children learn by letting go of doubt and grasping onto belief - belief in oneself and belief in one’s classmates. CircEsteem celebrates confidence, imagination, and respect while fostering coordination, understanding and synergy.
CircEsteem lets kids shine as center-ring stars in their very own circus. Everyone involved experiences the teamwork, discipline, and initiative needed to take a project from start to finish. This experience, ultimately, enhances self-esteem as kids overcome obstacles, achieve goals, and proudly exclaim, “I Can!”
