Absolutely brilliant night for both our Brownies and Guides. The two sessions were tailored appropriately for the different age groups and Paul the instructor was excellent: very patient, very good at explaining what to do and he made it so much fun! We would all really recommend Shooting Stars Circus Skills and look forward to a return visit by you in the future!.

We had shooting stars visit back in 2008 and our group at the time loved it.
Once again the girls had great fun, helped Im sure by Steves unpushy calm but helpful manner.
I have already had a parent email to say her daughter was so excited when she got home she couldnt get her to bed!!

A fabulous evening had by both Brownies and Owls. Steve kept everyone thoroughly entertained through out the session. He provided clear instructions and they were in awe of his juggling skills. Ive never seen the Brownies so focussed and they all learnt new skills. An excellent evening which I will be recommending to Brownie groups in our area. Will definitely book again. Thank you so much..

What a superb day! The children really enjoyed themselves and one pupil in Foundation Stage seemed genuinely overjoyed - the first time he has really come out of his shell since starting school.\nStewart was very flexible and was eager to enthuse our children. Even the staff were persuaded to walk the tightrope! We look forward to seeing him again next year!.

Shooting Stars Circus Skills gave our 8 year old one of his best birthday parties. So much fun for the children & the parents who couldnt wait to have a go!. We were really impressed by the circus skills that the children mastered in such a short time. A great variety of activities from peacock feather balancing, juggling, riding the smallest bikes in the world, diablo etc etc etc!! We all loved it. Would highly recommend 🤗.

We had Paul come and run a circus skills workshop for the Guides to achieve their Circus Skills badge. He engaged the girls immediately and taught them the various skills to be able to learn how to juggle, spin plates and balance feathers. They all really enjoyed the free time when they could try out all of the different equipment he had brought with him..

The instructor, Steve, has a friendly and laid-back approach but still keeps control of the class 14 - 18 yr olds with simple, clear, visual instructions.\nNot one of our group could juggle with 3 balls before the session- nearly all could by the end. Similar results with the Diablo.\nWell worth the money, thank you.

Alan was funny, great at demonstrating and more importantly had a really great approach to teaching the new skills. Teaching is obviously his forte -we will definitely be booking again in the future if he will come back!.

Other interesting activities for us might have included stilts or unicycle or even balloon animals. But for the 2 hours we had booked there was more than plenty to keep us busy!

Paul was very enthusiastic and inspiring with the children. He helped them to learn many new circus skills in an hour! The staff were even able to learn new skills too!
A really fun day and we will definitely book the company again!
My only suggestion for development would be a short performance for the children to watch at the beginning of the workshop. Maybe some clowns showcasing the skills and tricks the children will learn. This would give them a taste a real circus performance.

We had shooting stars to our Brownie group, the girls loved it and learned new skills even earning a badge. He was very patient with the girls and explained things in a level which they could understand. Would definite recommend to another group we would definatley have them again its just with us being a voluntary group the cost is hard to find..
