Additional Feedback

Describe the way(s) this program impacts your students learning and how this arts experience correlates with your curriculum:

Students who are not necessarily "sports kids" really benefited from this program because it showed them other avenues of physical activity that is more creative and artistic based. We believe is an overall inclusive feel in our curriculum that provides activities for all types of our students and circus arts provides just this.


Suggestions to artists for improvements:

My only suggestion would be to perhaps change up the stations mid week and introduce a few new activities the children can learn. This would perhaps keep the motivation level high for the entire week.


Additional comments:

Overall it was a very positive and enjoyable experience for our students. They all were very engaged and enthusiastic about learning circus arts. The instructors were all very engaging with the students as well.
