April 2022

As Spring is rolling through Northern Colorado, things at Fort Collins Circus Center are rolling forward! We have many exciting things happening in the coming months, so make sure to read through this month’s newsletter to be a part of the excitement!

Here at the gym we are working on choreography and performance skills for our May performance! This Spring’s performance is playing around with the theme of emotions in the human experience. Our students are exploring movement on the ground and in the air while encompassing a variety of emotions. We have this fun color wheel to help talk to our students about the variety of emotions that we may experience.

Make sure to register your student(s) for the show on VAMP to be able to perform in our showcase! * Commitment to the showcase would entail a 20-minute tech/dress rehearsal early in the week and one designated show night. May 8th through 14th. (*the performance is not mandatory for our students. All those who register for the showcase workshop will receive detailed information regarding schedule for show week*)
