Attività principali
Would you like to do some manual work and learn circus skills? Then this workcamp is the right place for you. ‘Learning by doing’ is the order of the day, so you can try things out and contribute your skills and ideas to the projects.
During the first week, you’ll get to show off your DIY and gardening skills by beautifying and maintaining the grounds of Jokes Circus School, a children’s and youth project with a real circus tent. The site also mainly consists of shipping containers, which serve as offices, toilets, storage rooms, dining areas and meeting rooms, and which you will also use during the camp. As well as beautifying and maintaining the grounds, you will also spend a lot of time on carpentry, roof construction and painting work to restore two beautiful old circus wagons.
In the second week you will take part in an exciting artistic and circus training workshop! Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of circus and try your hand at various disciplines. Learn the art of body control through acrobatics, which includes floor, aerial and partner acrobatics. Balance on a tightrope, ride a unicycle or master complex jumps and figures. Or you can discover the skill of juggling, where you hold several objects in the air at the same time and create impressive patterns with balls, clubs, rings and diabolos.
Dare to take to the air and try your hand at aerial acrobatics, which includes performances such as trapeze, vertical scarf, straps and aerial rings. This discipline requires strength, flexibility and courage. Do you prefer to stay on the ground? Then learn the art of comedy and entertainment through clowning, where you make people laugh with facial expressions, gestures, slapstick and humour.
Whether you already have experience or are just curious, this workshop is the perfect opportunity to learn new skills and push your boundaries.

Organizzatore
Jokes die Circusschule (Jokes the circus school)
In 1998, young circus enthusiasts founded their own circus school together with artists and teachers. Since then, young and young-at-heart artists from 4 to 99 years have been able to help shape the circus school.
In 2020, after a long period of planning, the school was finally able to move to its own space and set up its own circus tent, where shows are performed regularly. In addition, the Circus School has a hall for training. Almost 260 children and young people use these halls every week to do circus together. In addition, there are more than 300 children and young people who are looked after at schools on a weekly basis.
