The Gainesville Circus Center welcomes both recreational and professionally-minded students and offers a wide range of classes in aerial arts, juggling, stilting, world dance, acrobatics, flying trapeze, equestrian arts, and more. GCC also provides extensive youth programming, such as toddler time, afterschool circus, kids’ classes, camps, and performance opportunities, encouraging children to build confidence through creative exploration.
