Reach for the stars.
From aerial silks to flexibility, there's a circus class for everyone at the Actors Gym. All ages. All levels. No experience required.
We’ll make this quick:
We’ve spent the last 25 years teaching thousands of adults and kids that they are capable of more than they ever thought was possible.
The secret? Circus is more than elephants and clowns in tents. It’s physical and mental fitness. It’s learning to trust and believe in yourself.
We teach confidence.
It’s that simple. Though our classes focus on juggling, stilts, aerial arts, and more, the most important skill we teach is confidence.
You’ll never forget the first time you fly on a trapeze, and our students tell us that the self esteem they build here stays with them for the rest of their lives.
World-Class Instructors
Our Artistic Director Sylvia Hernandez-DiStasi is a second generation circus performer who grew up touring with various circuses, including Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey. She is also and ensemble member of Lookingglass Theatre.
In 2019, Sylvia and her family, The Hernandez Troupe, were inducted into the Circus Ring of Fame for their monumental contributions to the world of circus.
Sylvia always sees your potential. She sees the strongest version of a person rather than assuming their weakness or lack of capability. So as a student, you are able to change what you think your own limits are.
– Cordelia Dewdney, Lookingglass Artistic Associate
