What they’ve said…

“I just wanted to drop a quick line to say how amazing circus skills was yesterday! Your team set up so quickly and we could get going right on time! They were hilarious and so interactive – it went above my expectations. They made sure to go around and help people and make sure everyone could achieve something. They are a massive credit to you! The team had a really great time. Thank you!”

A few comments from the team:

‘’I never thought I’d of managed the basic part of juggling 3 balls!’’

‘’I was teaching my daughter how to juggle with tennis balls last evening and the method is a lot easier than previously taught!’’

‘’Thank you so much, my daughter was very jealous that we got to do circus skills at work!! She has been to a few circus skills classes in holidays and apparently they learnt how to pass spinning plates with their feet (not sure I could do that!!)’’

‘’Confirmed I was right not to run away and join the circus, but very entertaining time!’’
