Circus skills can be performed by anyone regardless of age and ability. Circus skills workshops can also be performed by anyone and for any reason be it school clubs, Scout and Guide groups, work team building sessions, social events or just to try something different. I leant to three-ball juggle from a very early age and have gone on to teach myself plate spinning, diabolo, poi, devil stick and how to use various balancing props.
