How will the workshop run?

Our workshops are tailored to your budget and group size, and are created to be fun for all participants!  

Most workshops held at NICA will incorporate a warm-up followed by small groups of participants rotating through a set selection of circus skills and a quick cool down.  

Drop-in style workshops can also be run to suit larger audiences, such as an offsite festival where participants are free to ‘drop-in’ to workshop stations and have a go at circus.
