🎪 Try something new at Inverted Aberdeen
GDCS are looking to partner with Inverted Circus Movement CIC to offer an intro block of circus skills class. This is a unique opportunity to learn some a fun and unique set of skills- trapeze, hoop, silks.
Likely approx. 10-18 years but we can adjust according to those who are interested.
Classes would be made as deaf accessible as possible.
We're currently thinking this would be in September 2026.
