At the senior circus course, the participants get to, for example, practice their balance and mobility using circus equipment.
Circus skills are excellent to increase longevity and boost the quality of life by addressing needs specific to aging including balance and flexibility, memory and processing, pain management, and social connection. It is not necessary for any condition or shape just the aim for fun and learning new skills, light to moderate stretching and range of motion activities to improve and maintain bi-manual coordination, balance, and postural control.
“Our Senior Circus Programme at Stoa is more than just a series of activities; it's a journey of self-discovery and self-expression. We immerse our students in an atmosphere that not only fosters and develops skills but also builds confidence, resilience, creativity, proprioception, and coordination among others. We offer a unique blend of well-being, circus arts, and social interaction encouraging our students to explore, innovate, and shine on their own unique stage of age.”
