Great environment and knowledgeable staff. Excellent shows. Couldn't ask for a better aerial studio and community.

I’ve taken a few ariel-yoga classes and attended a private bridal party at cirque wonderland now. Both I’d recommend again and again. The ariel-yoga with silks is an experience I’ve never been able to achieve at any yoga studio before - the silks allowed me to stretch deeper than usual and felt incredible. It was also FUN, the teachers have been supportive, and suggested alterations for students who varied in ability. Lastly, the private bridal party was so unique, and my friends will probably talk about it forever!

Cirque Wonderland has some wonderful entertainers! I’ve seen many of them perform at street fairs and it’s fabulous! And not only do they perform, they teach it too! Amazing!

I. Am. Hooked.If Cirque offered lyra classes every single day, I would just live there indefinitely. That’s probably what they’re trying to prevent ??Definitely recommend!

Cirque Wonderland Studios is an absolutely amazing place. I started training here exclusively a little over a year ago, and my time spent at this studio has absolutely exceeded my expectations. The team of coaches, support staff and owner make up a team of incredibly inviting, friendly, safety focused professionals. You can tell the Cirque Wonderland crew really cares about the success of each and every one of their patrons, and the space is simply excellent! Multiple rigging points, and so much space for any and all of your training needs. I can’t say enough about how special this studio has become for me, and would definitely recommend anyone curious about the studio come check it out and see this magic for yourself!

I love this place so much! I didn't think that in my 30s I would have recitals/join the circus but here I am. It is very hard stuff but they start you from the very beginning and each step is rewarding. The community is made up of so many different and amazing humans of all kinds and they're all wonderful. The instructors are all very knowledgeable, caring, encouraging and know how to communicate when you need an improvement or when you just need a hype cheer!

A welcoming and diverse group of students and coaches. Coaches are excellent at adapting any new skills to your level of comfort, flexibility, strength, etc. Wide range of classes for all interests and opportunities to grow as a performer as well. Love coming to classes each week and wish I had more time to spend at the studio!

Aerial class at CW is a favorite in my weekly workout rotation.We learn and build technical and creative skills in this fun atmosphere where inclusiveness is emphasized and safety is prioritized. The students represent a range of ages and body types, the coaches are knowledgable and accommodating, and everyone is supportive of each other. Come experience encouragement without competitiveness, and gain strength and confidence as you fly with us.

Definitely one of the best places to explore the circus arts and be encouraged to try the new, hard, weird things. The coaches, staff and students are super supportive and respectful of everyone that walks through the teal door of the studio.

I signed my girls up for the intro classes so that they could get a feel for what they're interested in and to learn the basics. Right away I was impressed by the background of the owner--one of the first people to bring circus and aerial arts classes to Iowa. Clearly this person has a passion for sharing the art form.After day one my kids were hooked and couldn't stop talking about how much fun they had. I love that class sizes are kept very small, and that the structure of membership and future classes leave a lot of room for scheduling flexibility.I am super excited that my kids found something that they want to keep doing--something that leaves so much room for personal growth and experimentation!

The folks at Cirque are taking such great precautions for covid. It feels safer than going to the grocery store!

Hands down the best Aerial Arts location around the metro. Safety is always in mind and classes are catered to the students. Skill learning is very hands on and methodical in process.The instructors do a great job coaching their student athletes and artists, and yes - you, reading this, can be an athlete and artist.The coaches are not mythical beings (although they certainly appear to be), they started at a point similar to where you may be. Not everyone in your life will believe in you, but these coaches will. And so should you. Give yourself the gift of self-confidence and try your first class free.
