Find Your Balance! With the Circus?

The ‘Find Your Balance! With the Circus?‘ project by ‘Kreativni pogon’ will take place in Liman Park and in the Liman Cultural Station on 30 April, within the Future of Europe programme arch.

The project addresses the topic of psychological balance, intending to raise the idea of introducing circuses in schools. The project is to offer the children, teachers and parents a new type of mental and physical recreation based on modern circus techniques, the balancing in the first place, and make them gain physical and mental harmony. The circus attraction will be an opportunity for lots of residents to get involved in circus activities of walking the wire, on stilts and ball balancing, and for children to become active participants in the centre of the city’s cultural events. The circus workshops will be led by mentors from the Circus School in Timisoara, educated at Brussels Circus School, who will select the children for the final performance in public spaces and cultural stations.
