Circus Intensive- “Explore”

(DATES are November 4 – 22, 60hrs over 3 weeks)
After two full seasons of private intensives, workshops, international guest teachers, and captivating show productions, Dreamscape and Cirquencia are thrilled to open the doors to our very first public circus intensive!
Curated by Guillaume Bellet- Explore Circus Intensive offers a unique, immersive experience that fills a crucial gap in the market—designed for those who can’t commit to a full two-year circus school or may feel beyond the typical selection process.
With a focus on contemporary circus as a whole, rather than specific techniques or props, we’ve combined the best of our experiences to create a transformative program that will elevate your circus journey.
If you’re like us- you have fallen in love with the art of circus and the creative freedom it provides. Here in serene Pai, Thailand, we’ve crafted an experience for fellow artists and travellers to explore new ways of expressing their unique style on stage. If you’ve spent any time in the circus scene here, you’ll be familiar with the journey of learning to spin fire- we want to offer you something new, a chance to put the props down and focus on articulating through the body.
This intensive isn’t just a class- it’s a shared journey of learning, creating, and pushing boundaries together. If you’re ready to elevate your skills and connect with your artistic individuality, this is where it all happens.
WHO IS THIS FOR:
Ideal for artists with at least one year of experience in circus arts.
Perfect for those eager to explore a professional path in circus arts. Open to all levels, though designed for individuals passionate about pushing their limits! Ages 18 and up.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
