Are you a circus coach who wants to make a difference for your students?
Circus Training Australia runs courses that are invaluable for people serious about teaching circus skills – both experienced circus coaches and those just starting out. During each course you will learn about appropriate progressions and teaching points, and will practice teaching techniques, giving you the confidence to know you are teaching to the best of your ability.
Students in CTA courses will take home booklets with photos and descriptions of all skills covered during the course. This is a unique resource you can refer to in your own teaching practice. The booklets also include a series of routines and lesson plans that you can implement in your own classes immediately.

Have you previously completed a CTA Tissu or Aerial Hoop course?
You might be eligible for a Catch Up course
We are offering Catch Up courses covering the skills that have been added into the CTA curriculum over the past two years.
The Catch Up courses offer 23 new skills in Hoop, and 25 new skills in Tissu. These skills will give you lots of new options to diversify what you teach in your current intermediate classes. We will also provide you with updated trick checklists and wall charts that have all of the skills in the levels covered!
This course is highly recommended for anyone considering our Level 8 & 9 Tissu or Level 8 & 9 Aerial Hoop courses. Many of the skills taught in Levels 8 and 9 build on these important foundations.
Important note: Catch up courses will only be held in 2019 in July and September. From 2020 any students who undertook these courses under the prior curriculum will need to re-sit the full courses before continuing to the higher levels.
