Description
We are a non-profit Social Circus organization based in Menorca, Balearic Islands.
From October to June we run a Social Circus School for children, youngsters and adults. Oct-Dec we offer trapeeze and Juggling lessons, Jan-Mar we offer Tissues and Balance lessons, and Apr-June we introduce Clown lessons and prepare a show with 50 children/youngsters artists.
As well, part of your time, would be helping us with the maintenance of the community where we live. These activities rage from gardening, helping in the vegetable garden, helping with general maintenance, etc.
In August we organize Circus Summer Camps, and a Circus Festival.
We assure open mind environment, and we will try to share with you as much as possible.Types of help and learning opportunities

We can offer accomodation in the countryside, a beautifull wood little house in the nature.
The place is near the beatiful Menorca´s sea (30min walking / 10 min by bycicle).
The house neighbourghs with a really open and diverse community (musicians, performers, non structured families, etc) all of them with great values ahead.What else ...
Menorca is a great place to site seeing. you can walk the "Cami de Cavalls" (literally: ‘Way of Horses’). It is a 185 kilometre dirt track that circles the entire coast of Menorca, an ancient path used by horse-riding guards to defend the island from a sea attack.
Snorkeling and Kayak in Menorca is an unique experience as well. Really near from the house you can reach a great place to discover the sea.
IMPORTANT: the wood house is situated in the middle of the nature, NO LUXURY, dry toilette, and BEAUTIFUL landscapes.
Public transport is ok, but a little bit limited. From the house you can reach a bus by walking 20-30min.
The is also the possibility of providing a bycicle to go around.A little more information
