TLDR; extremely constructive, professional, warm, and welcoming.
I traveled in from Arizona with my colleagues to receive higher level training which is not readily available in our state. SDCC was extremely conscious of our aerial and handstand goals and extremely accommodating to our schedules. Each of us took a number of classes and privates with the instructors. I worked with Jean-Luc in handstands and received valuable cues and drills which I've never received in the past which dramatically changed how I do handstands. Doing duo trapeze, static trapeze, and straps with Tatiana was incredibly successful and positively challenging. I am really appreciative that each instructors considered what skills we have, our anatomy, provided homework, and made the most of our time since we're only visiting. The studio is beautiful and has everything you need. I felt so welcomed and the people are so friendly. I highly recommend this place.

Love training here! The instructors are very knowledgeable and provide personalized hands-on adjustments to help you improve. Everyone is very welcoming and inclusive.

My partner and I travel often to receive higher level training. I feel like my trapeze and act development progress has grown exponentially since we have been visiting the studio. Additionally, all the coaches and students are so welcoming and excited to see us back, it makes us feel included.

My daughter is taking classes here and I must say, we are so impressed with both the facility and instructors. I highly recommend it! The facility is clean and very well stocked with apparatuses (apparati? Lol) and the instructors are attentive, supportive and hands on. A+++

Awesome facility, amazing staff and performers. Jean-Luc is really a master of what he does. Cannot recommend this circus center enough for both recreational and professional interest!

What a variety of offerings, spectacular instructors, and welcoming community. The circus center is a home for any number of circus arts, including handbalancing, partner acrobatics, trapeze, silks, tumbling, teeter board, dance and tramp wall. Every class is a challenge and instructors take the time to get to know your needs and goals. The founder/operators are the friendliest, most generous people. There is also an extensive youth program and preparatory program. From the casual enthusiast to the pro-in-the-making, all will find enjoyment at this facility.

The San Diego Circus Center is a hidden gem, located super conveniently right off the 5!! (Very easy to find, and lots of street parking if the lot is full) It's definitely worth checking out if you've ever thought about exploring the Circus Arts. There are lots of unique classes offered throughout the day, with really skilled/knowledgeable teachers. There are also a lot of really talented and dedicated students (of all ages!) which are all SO inspiring to train amongst. I love being a part of the community Jean-Luc has created at the Circus Center. We are so lucky to have this space here in San Diego!!
PS Highly recommend checking out one the incredible shows they put on a couple times a year! It's like a mini trip to Vegas, minus the airfare or chaos :)

I can't say enough great things about San Diego Circus Center! Our son has been taking classes there for over a year. From the moment we walked in the door, we felt part of the "circus family". There is a "come-as-you-are" environment that offers support and encouragement from everyone. The Circus Center has allowed and amplified our son's unique talents and allowed his artistic expression to be valued for what it is. To us, it's not about acquiring skills (which you definitely will) but, more importantly, about building self-confidence.
We are so glad we found this place. I highly recommend you check it out!!

The San Diego Circus Center is a magical place! We came to train partner acrobatics and handstands, and I feel our practice thrived and improved greatly in the month that we've been here. Jean-Luc has a fantastic eye, is a great spotter, and always seems to know the right progression or drill to get you to the next step. We'll definitely be coming back

I can't recommend the San Diego Circus Center enough! The facility is great and the teachers are wonderful! Especially Jean-Luc Martin who has an amazing coaches eye! He will look at you and your body's potential, and he will help you go further than you imagined. He will help you get better but will work with what your body is capable of instead of pointing everyone down the same path. Expect to work hard. All the classes even the flexibility ones are serious. But every teacher there is happy to work with where you are.
I cannot wait to go back and train more!

I moved across the country because of this place and Jean-Luc, the owner, who is the most knowledgable, dedicated, and caring coach I have ever experienced. I visited from Northern VA a few times for private lessons and knew this was where I needed to be, even though circus is just a passionate hobby for me. The feeling you get from training hard and smart, exercising both your body and brain, alongside other students that become like a second family is like nothing else. I am incredibly lucky and thankful to have found this place. Definitely come check it out- SDCC offers something for everyone, with a wide variety of classes for all levels, for those just seeking the most unique workout you can have or to train hard with a professional level goal!
