Kinetic Theory Circus Arts, LA's only circus theatre training program has some BIG news!
Room to Spread Our Wings!
We are ecstatic to announce the opening of our new training studio! A perfect spot for circus and physical theatre training, the new studio will feature: a large open area, 20 foot high ceilings, a dance studio and, of course, the supportive, welcoming community of Kinetic Theory!
Our Expanded Schedule
We now have the time and space to offer more of our signature classes such as 'Circus Conditioning', 'Aerial Arts' and 'Contortion', and we've even added a few new classes to our repertoire! A little something for everyone...
New Kids Classes:
Circus Together- a class for toddlers (ages 2-3) and their parent/caregiver to play, move and explore!
Pre-school Circus Stars*- 3-5 yr. olds work coordination, motor and social skills while learning the fundamentals of acrobatics, juggling and object manipulation as well as expressive movement
Youth Circus Arts*- Introduces kids ages 6 and up to the dynamic art or circus. Students learn basic acrobatics, partner acrobatics and hand-balancing as well as juggling and object manipulation, clowning and expressive movement.
Youth Aerial Arts*- 8-15 yr. olds can start their aerial training on static trapeze, rope and tissue. Heavy emphasis is placed on safety and technique as well as fundamentals of performance and choreography.
Youth Contortion*- 8-15 yr. olds can explore the acrobatic art of flexibility. Students will learn proper stretching and breathing techniques, a basic trick repertoire and fundamentals of performance and choreography.
Stage Stars*- Ages 5-7 & 7-12. This class is for those kids who just live for the spotlight! Students learn to use improvisation, classical mime technique, and traditional and experimental theatre methods to create stories and express ideas on stage.
Performance Troupe* ages 8-15, By audition only- Intermediate to advanced students can continue to perfect their circus skills while learning to work as an ensemble and hone their craft as performers.
New Adult Classes (Ages 16+)
Beginning Acrobatics*- Learn the basics of tumbling and hand-balancing. A great workout and foundation class for any circus discipline!
Intensive Stretching- Just a little bit of focus on your flexibility and you'll be amazed at the results! This class emphasizes proper technique, posture and alignment.
Physicalize- Quite possibly the most fun you'll have all week! This class fuses traditional improv games with creative movement, mime and clowning exercises. Lose your inhibitions, feel free and creative, and learn to communicate with your body!
Performance Troupe*, By invitation/audition only- This program is designed for intermediate to advanced students who want to train at a professional level and reach a high-level of artistry as a performer. Troupe members continue to perfect their circus skills while learning to work as an ensemble and hone their craft as performers. Students at this level also gain "real-life" experience by performing in Kinetic Theory shows and at community events.
*Students perform an in class demonstration at the end of every session

We are also planning on bonding with our new studio by having regular events for the "Kinetic Theory family" and the local community.
Where to Find Us
Our new space is located at 5950 W. Jefferson Blvd. (at Holdrege) near the Jefferson/Rodeo/Higuera intersection in Culver City. We will be having an official opening party at some point, but until then... we hope to see you in class in May!
