The Flying Gravity Circus Pre-Troupe is open to 3rd, 4th, 5th (and sometimes 6th) graders who possess a strong love for circus arts. Pre-Troupers should be ready to commit to working hard (while having fun) at circus. Along with improving coordination, balance, strength, flexibility and social skills, the goal of the Pre-Troupe program is to help students learn what it means to become Troupers in the Flying Gravity Circus.
Green Troupe focuses on building a strong and broad foundation in the FGC core circus skills. Troupers also work on developing stage presence, and create a full show, which is performed throughout the season at local venues.
