Sailor Circus Logo

The Greatest "Little" Show on Earth

 

   

Police Athletic League LogoToday, the circus is operated as a program of the Police Athletic League of Sarasota County, Inc. PAL is dedicated to the development of programs that provide a safe environment for kids to participate, learn, and achieve while developing positive relationships between kids and law enforcement.  The mission of Sailor Circus is to keep the family tradition of the circus alive while using the circus arts as an alternative teaching method and intervention program for youth at risk in the community.  The incorporation of these two wonderful youth support organizations brings a unique and exciting opportunity to the families of our community.


We have more than 100 students participating in each of our two annual sessions. Students are trained in various circus skills from clowning to tumbling, from high-wire to flying trapeze, from unicycle to juggling, and much more. We incorporate every aspect of circus training, from rigging and costuming to presentation and performing. Students learn the true meaning of teamwork, leadership, and dedication, with the reward of the exhilarating experience of performing.
