Welcome to Syrcas Byd Bach
Aerial circus training, performance and opportunities. We are a training school for aerial circus in west Wales. We teach aerial circus to young people and adults from beginner level upwards. Our weekly classes happen during school terms and we also offer summer school experiences and one-off workshops/masterclasses.
All students experience a mix of apparatus across the term including static trapeze, rope/silks and sling/hammock. Our aerial classes begin at age 8+ but there is no upper age limit to participation!
Our aerial tutors include Jess Allen, Emma Stevens and Sophie Ivil.
