We CAN swing from a trapeze and climb silks and do hand stands (we might just need some help learning the basics and getting our - ahem - more mature bodies used to the movements). The Sellam Circus School in Biddeford is just the place to learn.
The closure of Circus Maine is a real bummer. But there are still places to learn aerial silks, trapeze, and the art of handbalancing with Apparatus Dance Theater, Sellam Circus School, and The Circus Haus.
