Meet The Group

Circus Starlight is a vibrant circus academy founded by Nikkiita Mclusky during the 2020 lockdown in Leadenham.  Born out of a desire to bring accessible and high-quality circus arts to rural communities, the academy offers a range of performances, workshops, and classes for all ages. Their mission is to make circus arts inclusive, fun, and available to everyone, regardless of background or experience.

Each term, students concentrate on a different aerial discipline, enhancing their strength, flexibility, and performance abilities. These classes are structured in 6-week blocks and are designed to cater to varying skill levels.
