*New* Morning Open Training Hours (March only. For now?)

Starting March. Monday-Thursday @ 6am-8am

A bunch of our members said they wanted early morning hours for open gym. Now you've got 'em! We're doing a test run for the month of March. If these sessions are popular enough then we will look into extending them to April and beyond. (PS: if you're a big fan of this then don't forget to show your appreciation to Marilyn Gray! They are the tenacious member who is making this possible.)

Artistic & Professional Development Program


March 21 to May 9 (8 weeks). Tuesdays @ 6pm-8pm

Artistic expression is an entire discipline in itself! Stage presence doesn’t happen by accident. Great characters and acts don’t write themselves. This program is a well rounded blend of physical technique, practiced theory, and one-on-one consultation to take your technical skills to the next level. We’ll also deep dive into the other aspects of performance, including costuming and makeup. Interested students will have the opportunity to learn more about acquiring gigs and receive professional behind-the-curtain insights to the world of performing. Depending on the commitment of the individual, students will have a polished sequence or full routine by the end of the semester. (PS: No matter what experience level, EVERYONE is welcome! All skills are welcome too. We want to include everyone from burlesque dancers to juggers, aerial artists to hula hoops performers, contortionists to mimes, etc.)

Membership Structure Changes - Starting April



Heads up, Circuslings! Starting April, there will be some changes to how we structure our memberships. There’s no need to panic, we promise.


With the new structure, we will be offering membership at a couple different levels. Each level will come with different perks and it will allow us to bill each person once per month instead of having to charge separately for dues and then class fees. Our current system is such that we have to process both things separately and it leaves a lot of room for human error. Many people have either been charged too much or too little for their classes and it’s a headache for all of us.


As we change our membership structure we will also begin using new studio management software. This new software will make it a bajillion times easier for you to sign up for classes and workshops, change billing information, stay up to date with studio closures and class cancellations, etc. Just trust us… you’re going to love it!


More details on these changes will be rolling out soon. Stay tuned! <3
