Roll up, Roll up, for the Greatest Circus in School
“Splats Circus skills days are devised by Stephen Richards P.E B.Ed Hons, developing from his dissertation into how to encourage participation in sports. This has lead to 1000’s of schools running the circus day both as a fun and challenging day but also as a way to incorporate circus into their PE curriculum.”

Splats learning to learn circus skills classes
A Splats Circus skills day is the perfect mix of physical and mental challenges presented in a playful way. Our expert Splats teachers use our carefully planned program to help pupils to challenge their perceptions, teach and observe each other and to work as a group to achieve success.
Scarf Juggling
Our lessons start with scarf juggling. They move so slowly they are a great way for young children to learn to catch and older to learn the juggling pattern.
Slow and floaty for movement and creativity.
Pupils will improve their co-ordination and confidence and understand how the learning process works. A fantastic series of classes teaching juggling, plate spinning, diabolo, poi, ribbon and much more.
Feather Balancing
One of our favourite challenges is the feather balance. On one finger, the hand, back of the arm and eventually on the nose, chin or head.
Attention, imagination, determination.
A Splats Circus skills class is carefully structured to maximum success in stages. Our lessons cater for all ages and we adjust our lesson plan accordingly. The beauty of circus skills is that the pupils can work at their own level and practice and improve through observation of their own learning and others.
Ball Juggling
Juggling is the perfect model for explaining how the learning process works. Focusing on letting the ball drop we help the pupils relax and learn the gentle movement required for success.
Juggling is the perfect learning model.
The pupils work individually, in pairs and in groups on a variety of challenges designed to improve their skills and understanding of how the learning process works. Pupils challenge their perceptions, teach and observe each other and work as a group to achieve success.
