" Circus Sensible are hired for 2 days of circus workshops and shows at our annual WAM Festival. Every year they are our biggest hit, with everyone learning new skills and feeling entertained. They engage really well with the crowd and are a pleasure to work with. We look forward to having you again next year! "

Esteem Training, Glasgow.

" Can’t even begin to tell you how much everyone enjoyed the circus skills workshop. Kat and her assistant were amazing – brilliant personalities and managed a group of 21 with absolute ease. Several members of the team have now purchased juggling balls to perfect their skills for our next team day! Possible merchandising opportunity for you at the end of skills workshops? I will indeed be calling on your services again personally, and will leave an excellent maximum star Facebook review at end of week "

Pinner Wood School, Pinner, London

" Yesterday we had our circus workshop from Tim and it was FANTASTIC! There was so much excitement throughout the school and children were beaming from start to finish. The workshop was adapted to suit the age and needs of the children perfectly. Teachers commented on how brilliant the session was and all the children had a wonderful time and asked if they could do it again soon. Thank you so much for all your hard work and support in organising this "

Hartsbourne Primary School, Bushey Heath London

" Circus Sensible are amazing! We bought in one of their Big Top days as a way of welcoming the children back to school and to launch our Circus week. They were professional from set up to pack down and the children thoroughly enjoyed the show and workshops. I would highly recommend them "

"Circus Sensible were amazing when they visited our school. The children laughed all day and loved watching the performances. Many of them have been inspired to continue practising their skills. Thoroughly recommend them.”

University Academy, Birkenhead

"Just a quick email to say a huge thank-you for the fantastic day provided by Circus Sensible. Quite simply, in the two weeks of various agencies providing activities at our summer school, your company has provided the gold standard by which all other agencies that work in school should be judged! From the start of the booking to the finish today the service has been nothing short of exemplary and I am already looking for the opportunity to book this again”

The Science of Circus

"Complex tasks such as juggling produce significant changes to the structure of the brain, according to scientists at Oxford University.
In the journal, Nature Neuroscience, the scientists say they saw a 5% increase in white matter - the cabling network of the brain." In brief, learning a new skill such as Juggling can hard wire our brains to work better and faster! Circus skills help develop and improve concentration skills. This is particularly evident in those children with shorter attention spans. When we run Circus skills workshops in schools the teachers are often amazed that one or more children who usually have a problem concentrating are doing better than anyone else in the class! Learning Circus skills also offers great benefits in terms of physical co-ordination and physical fitness. Circus workshops fit very well into the school curriculum under PE and co-ordination development. In fact there are many areas where Circus workshops offer great opportunities for curriculum enrichment.

Activities such as Circus skills have been used with great success as an educational tool, as an aid to learning as well as therapeutically with children at risk and with children with special needs. Autistic children have been observed to respond particularly well to Circus skills in schools. Circus skills are an opportunity for children and adults to discover and develop skills such as Concentration, Information retention, Concept visualisation, hand eye co-ordination and self awareness. These skills can then be used in many other settings including social situations and in conventional educational settings whilst learning the core subjects.
