If you’ve ever dreamt of travelling the world and joining the circus then this adventure is for you!! Circo Mexico is the Academy’s newest and “zaniest” international adventure to date! In an exciting collaboration with Circo de los Ninos, located in San Pancho, Mexico this program will be an interactive exchange of culture through the performing arts. Our hosts and instructors at Circo de los Ninos are a fully operating youth circus organization that is supported through the efforts and equipment of the world famous Cirque de Soleil! American students will participate in daily workshops with local students in an incredible studio space as they work towards a final performance for community members, friends and family! There will also be daily excursions around this beautiful ocean-side region of Mexico. Students will have the opportunity to take surf lessons, paddle sea kayaks into lagoons, stroll small village streets, sample amazing local cuisine and immerse themselves in the Spanish language. Our band of travelers will live, work and perform together from the small town of San Pancho, Mexico. Our group home accommodations will be within walking distance of our performing space, the beach and a quaint collection of shops and restaurants. Parents are invited to come and join us for the days leading up to the show and enjoy a few days of sun, sand and CIRCUS!!!
