This summer program in the form of a one or two-week intensive summer camp allows young people ages 9 to 12 or 13 to 17 to experience professional training in circus arts. During their stay, participants receive a solid grounding in the demands of the various disciplines, and begin to learn effective training and personal motivation skills.





The ideal candidate wishes to undertake an intensive session in circus arts training. He or she may already be enrolled in a preparatory program in circus arts or may simply wish to gain experience.
  • The candidate demonstrates proficiency in the circus arts, dance, a martial art or acrobatic sport with an artistic component, such as artistic or rhythmic gymnastics, trampoline, diving, figure skating, etc.
  • The candidate has a functional knowledge of either the French or English languages.



Activities are scheduled 5 days a week, 6 hours per day, and represent a balance between learning physical techniques such as physical conditioning, flexibility, acrobatics, trampoline and "powertrack" with receiving an introduction to such circus arts as aerials, manipulation and balancing. Creative and acting workshops are among the many diverse activities that complement the training participants receive, culminating in performing before an audience.

Summer camp attendees may select from two options.

  • Option 1 - Day Camp from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.*
  • Option 2 Camp 24h/24 The participants are housed in School dormitories. This option also includes meals served in the NCS cafeteria. A professional coordinator assumes responsibility for participants 24/24, from overseeing activities to night-time supervision.
