Coco’s Circus and Theatrical Arts School is the first of its kind based in South-West London to offer this brand new and exciting concept that combines circus skills; i.e. acrobatics, juggling, trapeze, tight rope and stilt walking, pyramid building, dance and drama and much more all under one roof exclusively for children aged 6-16 years of age!

 It is a fun and challenging environment offering young people the opportunity to develop, grow and realize they can do far more than ever expected!

  Here at Coco’s every one is a star; learning these amazing skills and art forms, that boost confidence, enthusiasm, balance, coordination and brings them a sense of achievement that children will benefit from and build the foundations for whatever path of life they will dedicate themselves to follow. Not to mention their physical well being that these days are limited to watching DVDs and playing computer games…

 Interaction, team work as well as developing individual talent and skills, but most importantly having fun is the cornerstone of this very unique school that is offering children the opportunity to express themselves, grow, and learn all these remarkable skills under one roof, also for parents to know that they no longer have to be a “Taxi Service” to rush children to different individual activities.

 All disciplines are taught with the foremost safety in mind under the guidance of professional coaches and performers, who have relevant up to date CRB checks and Public Liability Insurance.

 And there is no one better qualified to lead this fantastic new establishment than the grand daughter of the famous Coco the Clown OBE: Zayna Hassani, who was a performer from the tender age of six and whose parents opened the first Non-Animal Circus here in the UK, and her husband Csaba Menus, who was a Champion Gymnast and a trapeze artist from Hungary, between them share no less than 35 years of experience in performing as well as coaching.
