About

A Toronto Aerial, Acrobatic & Fitness Studio

Story

“Cirque-ability: The ability that exists within to learn the art of circus.”

Our History
Cirque-ability is an aerial, acrobatic and fitness studio that was founded in 2008 by Heather Kentner. Heather created a studio where students of all ages and abilities could have fun participating in circus inspired classes. Students come to Cirque-ability to learn the art of circus, improve their fitness and have fun! However, the real success that comes from discovering your “cirque-ability” is feeling inspired to do the things that you never thought possible.

Our Vision
To make lives a little more fun, fit and fearless.

Our Mission
To bring out the “Cirque-ability” in everyone through aerial, acrobatic & fitness classes. We promise personalized instruction, small class sizes and excellence in coaching. We believe that staying fit is fun and enjoyable when you are part of a community that respects, encourages and inspires you to be your best.


What’s Unique about Cirque-ability’s Classes?

Small Class Sizes! No more than 6 students to a coach, this means personalized instruction, faster progress and a higher level of safety.

No more than two students to a piece of aerial equipment. This means more time in the air and less time waiting for your turn.

Qualified and Trained Coaches! We understand that excellence in performance and competition does not automatically make you a good coach. Our coaches go through a training program to become great coaches. They know how to break down skills, give directions, troubleshoot problems and offer alternatives.

We focus on safety! Trained coaches, skill progressions and proper matting helps create a safe training environment. When looking for an aerial & acrobatic school it’s important to ask questions that pertain to your safety. Ask whether coaches have gone through a training program to coach and which certifications they hold. Ask whether there is a level system in place to ensure that students aren’t working on skills beyond their ability. Take a look at the space to see whether you can see proper mats under equipment and on the floor. Ask questions about how the aerial equipment has been rigged. At Cirque-ability we are always happy to answer your questions.

Lesson Plans! Our coaches have a plan. Even the most difficult moves are broken down into progressions that make learning skills easier. Having a a level system ensures that advanced skills are not introduced too soon and students are ready for the skills they are learning. Our classes are geared to each individual’s level by allowing students to work through our lesson plans at their own pace and not expecting them to work at a group level.

A Non-Competitive Environment. Cirque-ability has a great sense of community. Students of all levels work together and respect each other. It doesn’t take long before Cirque-ability feels like your home away from home.
