At Galway Community Circus we believe in play and remaining curious. Our adult classes allow the opportunity to learn more about your body, movement and self-awareness.
In autumn 2024 there will be 11 weeks of classes in autumn term and 19 weeks of classes in spring term. Our Adult Circus classes typically run for about 12 weeks in autumn term (September to December) and 18 weeks in winter/spring term (January to June). The amount of weeks varies based on what day the class falls on and public holidays. Registration for adult classes is done by term. Registration for autumn term typically opens in July, and registration for spring term typically opens in December. Members (those previously enrolled in these classes) have the option to register first before classes are open to the public. Once classes are open to the public, spaces will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
For more information and updates on registration, upcoming classes, workshops and events, please sign up for our newsletter here.
Registration for spring term 2025 Adult Circus classes will be open to the public on 1st January, 2025. Classes begin on 13th January.
