Our Circus Arts Preparatory Program is aimed at young people aged 9 to 17 who wish to develop their potential and their physical abilities to eventually adhere to our Circus and High School Studies program or our Higher Education program.
Offered in French, this training consists of extracurricular courses focused on physical preparation and learning different circus disciplines.
Although classes begin in September, we accept new applications at any time. An individual with the required skills can therefore join the program at any time during the school year.
The Preparatory Program provides 11 hours of training per week for the PFS1 group and 13 hours for the PFS2 group, every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.
The fall 2023 session will run from September 6 to December 17. There will be one week off from October 9 to 15, 2023.
