Family Adventure Play
Sunday
May 31, 2026
11am - 12:30pm
Circus Adventure Play is a child-led, exploration-based experience designed especially for children under five and their grown-ups. Together, parents and children build strength, flexibility, coordination, and trust while discovering the exciting world of aerial arts in a safe, thoughtfully designed environment.
At this age, children need opportunities to take healthy risks in spaces where hazards are carefully managed. Our knowledgeable staff creates a supportive play setting where little ones can climb, hang, swing, balance, and explore at their own pace — with caregivers close by. This kind of adventure play is essential for early childhood development, supporting motor skills, body awareness, confidence, resilience, and problem-solving.
Through guided but largely self-directed play, children and adults learn to communicate both verbally and non-verbally while navigating circus elements together. The focus is not on performance or perfection, but on exploration, connection, and joy.
This class is designed for caregivers and children to participate together — no unaccompanied children, please.
For children ages 5 and over, we offer structured instructional classes and private lessons. However, ABC Cirque is a strong advocate for self-directed play as a powerful foundation for lifelong learning.
Come climb, swing, explore — and grow together.

Circus training has very specific safety parameters unique from other movement arts. Please adhere to the dress code and know the coaches have the right to refuse training if wardrobe endangers students or apparatuses.
No zippers, buttons, watches, and jewelry are permitted. Wear fitted and footless athletic leggings that cover and protect the backs of the knees. Long hair needs to be tied up. No long artificial nails: these nails limit the person's ability to grip or safely stay in the air or maintain proper hand placement during ground acrobatic moves
For beginner classes only: fitted, basic tank tops or tee shirts covering midriffs are permitted.
For open level and advanced classes: unitards or leotards are best to cover midriffs to protect skin.
If you have any questions please check with your coach or email info@abcirque.com
