ABOUT THE SHOW

 

Cirque De Vol and Pa’Volar present Circus ‘Out of the Box’—an innovative creation that delves into the boundaries of our world and the ‘boxes’ we continually break free from. Through a dynamic blend of aerial artistry, acrobatics, and captivating performances, this show explores the constraints that shape our lives and the moments of liberation that redefine them. Out of the Box invites you to uncover the extraordinary possibilities that lie just beyond the limits we set for ourselves.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM​

Throughout the program, participants will work on leveling up their technique in multiple Ground and Aerial disciplines while also working on Act Development and Ensemble Show Creation. Our training incorporates Circus, Dance, Aerial Technique, Physical Theatre, and more. From the colorful costumes and vibrant music to the theatre and storytelling we bring to life, Pa’Volar becomes so much more than something you do. You become a part of this high-energy, immersive, dynamic, and fun artistic community! The culmination of the program includes a produced performance presented to the public, providing valuable onstage experience and preparing students for the professional world.

The program includes two weekly classes, a two-hour Ensemble Creation period one Saturday per month, as well as an additional one-hour weekly skill training session on an apparatus of your choice (Aerial Silks, Sling, Rope, Straps, Trapeze, or Lyra).
Pa’Volar participants also benefit from unlimited open gym times for individual training and rehearsal. We find that this helps sharpen skills and feed a determined spirit!
The program is led by Coaches Colleen Sands, Maria Carvajal, and Houston Odum, along with Special Guest Coach Cheya Potter, with support + direction of Paulina Munoz + Sara Howell.

Pa’Volar Membership includes an additional weekly aerial series class on the apparatuses of your choice, unlimited open gym sessions, and all theatre, rehearsal and performance times.
