Circus Helsinki

Circus Helsinki is a circus school at Suvilahti, Helsinki. School started off as a school of seven students but has grown to be the biggest recreational circus school in Finland with over 1000 students and about 40 instructors. The school has students from all age groups from babies to adults and a high-level youth performing group. There are also frequent visiting groups such as schools, private companies and cheerleaders. During day time circus professionals use the space for practice and creation. Our objective is to create an ideal environment for recreational circus training. An encouraging atmosphere, good facilities and high-quality instructors are the means to achieve this goal. We also aspire to reach audiences of all kinds with a variety of circus performances and festivals. Our own performance venue and an active network of young and professional artists make this possible.
