About
A juggling and object-manipulation class at Chapitô, the circus school and arts collective on the slope below São Jorge Castle. Kids work with balls, clubs, rings, diabolo, devil stick, spinning plates, scarves, cigar boxes and hats, then turn everyday objects into props to spin and balance. No experience is needed, which suits kids who want to try circus skills without the aerial side.
