Drop In Classes (open practice, aerial, youth classes, etc.)
Open Practice Drop In (12+) $24 per class From $20 per visit with Six Drop in Pass (one free!) pass A credit card is required to enroll but isn't charged until the time of service.
Level: Mixed Level
Drop In - advanced registration encouraged
During our January break, open practice will be held:
Sundays January 4 + 11 from 2-3:15pm
Tuesdays January 6 + 16 from 6:30-7:45pm
Thursdays January 8 + 15 from 6:30-7:45pm
During our Winter Session (Jan 18- April 18), open practice will be held:
Sundays from 5-6:15pm
Thursdays from 7:45-9pm
Open practice is a time for self practice and to refresh and refine material you have been working on in class.
What to expect: Students should come with a sense of what they want to work on, and will be given shared access to aerial equipment, and/or space for ground skills. There will always be a moderator on site for support with rigging, equipment, and space needs as well as various resources to help students learn how to practice on their own. It is possible you may not have your own point for the entirety of the practice time and will need to take turns - we trust our community will be open to sharing and collaborating in this way.
Pre-requisites: Past or present participation in classes at Circus Culture and the ability to be self motivated and structure your own time. If you are visiting Ithaca, you are welcome to sign up to practice as long as you have an established circus practice. Ages 12+.
Open practice moderators always have the agency to request that students pause working on anything they deem too risky or not aligned with our safety practices at Circus Culture.

Level: Intermediate / Advanced
By application (see below)
Sundays from 6:30-8:30pm starting February 4 and ending April 28 with Elan Reuven
This is not a class, so much as a gathering of compatibly skilled acrobats - given this, we require an interest form to make sure it will be a good fit for you to join. Students are expected to be able to accurately self assess their abilities in order to maintain a comfortable level of risk management for all. Students should come with moves they are actively looking to work on and develop vs. looking for a teacher or facilitator to teach them things.
Pre-requisites to submitting the interest form: 30 second handstand with acrobatic form (free or spotted), comfort basing and/or flying two high with multiple entrances and exits, experience with L basing, banquine basics, and counter balances.
If you are interested in joining in, please fill out the interest form here. If you are seeking a time to do acrobatics but this is not the right fit, we encourage you to come to handstands, tumbling, or ground skills classes which will all have acrobatic components. We hope to add an intro and beginner/intermediate acro time in the future - we appreciate your patience.

Performance camp is designed for circusers who already have some experience with the circus arts who are excited about creation, performance, and community!
During performance camp we spend the first week practicing circus skills, creating our ensemble, and putting a show together, complete with our aerial rig, full acts, support from a producer, guest coaches, and access to our costumes. The second week, we polish the show and perform in the Press Bay Backlot in the evening for our community. Friday will be a celebration of our two weeks together. Students will also have the option to continue performing in our community tour for the next two weeks on their own with acts made at camp if they want more performance experience (no additional cost). With two weeks to learn, create, and perform you will be developing your skills, creativity, and community to the next level. All campers receive a Circus Culture t-shirt!
This camp requires that campers have the maturity to help with all aspects of putting on a show - from navigating casting to packing up the equipment to performing. We ask that everyone wishing to sign up for performance camp first read and discuss the performer contract to make sure it’s a good fit! If you have any questions about the expectations for troupers or if this is the right fit for the young person in your life, email claire@circusculture.org. We will go through the contract with troupers the first day of camp and sign them together as a group.
