Imagination Circus Arts Information

ICA offers courses in mixed aerial arts and acrobatics with a focus on performance and theatre, as well as ground skills courses that cross train manipulation and equilibrium apparatus. We offer the ICA Circus Factory Training Program (CFTP) for students who wish to go on the professional performance track. This is an audition only group that feeds into our professional Circus Factory and gets the opportunity to apprentice as aerialists in professional shows for hire by the ICA Circus Factory Professional Performers. ICA strives to create an environment that teaches the safety and aesthetic aspects of Circus Arts, as well as a kinetic understanding of where the movement comes from. Each student enrolls in a class that is appropriate for their age and level, that group then begins a series of curriculum lessons as well as physical theatre, technique, strength and conditioning and abstract movement and dance. Each season focuses on a different set of goals, and each goal is accomplished by using multiple apparatus and cross training technique. Each group receives a color code that they will maintain for the duration of their career at ICA. In General, a student will remain with their given color and advance as a group, as long as it is still appropriate to their level of ability. A student is eligible to take more than one class once they have successfully passed their first round of basics. Each student can take as many classes as they like, and will be invited to audition for the Circus Factory Training Program when appropriate. ICA ground skills courses are mixed discipline as well, and include theatre performance and physical comedy training.
