| Cultural and Performance Exchange Program 14 of our lucky students will take part in a cultural exchange program with Le Studio LA Circus School July 2010. |




The most fun we had this December (2008) was on a visit to the Circus Arts school at the Byron Entertainment Centre. I must congratulate Belinda, Gayle and Richard on the amazing school they have made, which I believe is now one of the top circus spaces in Australia. The roof height, space, presentation and equipment is all of the highest quality, we were so impressed it was hard for us to leave class, it really is a masterpiece visit www.circusarts.com.au for more information on classes and prices |

| During the last week of February of 2008 is going to start the first edition of only International Circus Festival in Spain. Just like festivals as Wuquinao, Montecarlo or Paris, Spain works for having a window to the world for the promotion and spreading of circus arts. With the support of the Ministry of Culture of Spain, the International Circus Festival of Albacete is going to take place from 28th February to 2nd March, beneath the dome of the only theatre circus conserved in Spain. Build in 1887 and restored in 2002, the building of Theatre Circus (see attached photos) gives a framework without comparison for this amazing meeting of circus people. The International Circus Festival of Albacete is born with the purpose to present 20 circus attractions first-class and hopelessly new in Europe. Since his creation, this new meeting point claims become a door wide open to Europe for artists from other continents who want to open up their market. For this reason, the jury of the Festival is going to be formed by important directors of circus (Nikulin, Atayde, Heller, Mauclair, and others…), as well as the main artistic agents and the editors of circus magazines are invited. The International Circus Festival of Albacete, in his first edition, will be the festival of the discovery, in which only are going to act the companies who have never been in Europe.
