Workshops

Circulation brings together a very talented group of performers to teach and entertain you, but we also encourage people to lead their own workshops as a way of engaging with the community and to share your knowledge. We will have black boards where you can write your own spontaneous workshop and take your own classes with the community. We offer workshops of all varieties, all types of flow props, acrobatics, aerials, performance art, music, yoga and so much more!

Renegade
[a person who behaves in a rebelliously unconventional manner]

This is one of the words we use to sum up this festival, at circulation we love to embrace spontaneity. As part of pushing this we hold a renegade show on Sunday night. Where we invite anyone of any age and skill to come on stage and join us for night of shared performance. This is chance to show off anything your learned from the event, or anything else you want share, its great chance to learn to be comfortable on the stage in front of your peers. Many performers from new zealand, (the likes of Mr Jeff and Rewi Elffyre) started their careers at Circulation, learning their skills from playing and sharing ideas and tricks with others in the community.
