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

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
