It’s a Wrap

..or is it “That’s a Wrap?”  Either way, the first week of circus camp is over. Five days of 9-3:30 worth of intensive circus work has everyone worn out.  If it wasn’t for my barking dog I would be still be asleep also.  Next week the class meets later in the evening, so we can all sleep in a bit.   Jake really attended this week more as a helper to the younger and newer kids.  A role he seems to be good at-but don’t tell him I said that, it may ruin his tough image!   But he  participated a good bit also.  To close the week the group had a small performance for families today.  And as always they learned lots of new skills and their confidence has grown.  A good show as always!

Jake took the time on lower stilts this week to try out some new tricks.

They also worked on trapeze, poi, juggling, tumbling and hula hooping this week.  Ginger and I stayed and did their morning warm up a few days this week and let me tell you-it was NOT easy.  This is some hard work.  Back to sleep!

Hard work, and they’re STILL DOING IT! What is it we used to say about unschooling and persistence? I can’t remember. I guess it just comes with age, when they find the thing they really want to do.

I love your stilt photos, btw.

Oh wow, it really does look like a lot of fun.. I get the impression from previous photos too that Jake is a bit of a daredevil :-D

FAR OUT. My kiddos ould love trying that out!
