Classes

Most CircEsteem youth classes are offered for students ages 7 and up. Students should wear comfortable clothes that they can go upside-down in and sneakers. CircEsteem’s Chicago Youth Circus and HomeWork & CircusWork programs are offered with a sliding scale of fees. Please contact CircEsteem for more information.

HomeWork & CircusWork

HomeWork & CircusWork is a free  after-school tutoring program, which addresses the need CircEsteem participants have to keep up on their schoolwork while still being able to spend time learning circus skills. HomeWork & CircusWork meets on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3:00 – 5:30 p.m.. The students spend an hour developing their circus skills with our highly- trained circus instructors and an hour working on their homework or other academic enrichment activities with our volunteer tutors. Interested in becoming a CircEsteem volunteer? Contact us for more information. Between the two hours the students enjoy a healthy snack, generously provided by  Whole Foods.

Classes start Monday September 12th.  Transportation can be provided for students attending schools in Uptown, Edgewater and Rogers Park.  Contact us for more information.

Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 3:00 p.m. -5:30 p.m at Alternatives
