Circus Harmony runs performance-based circus summer camps at the City Museum in St. Louis for youth ages 7 to 17. Across five two-week sessions from June to August, campers learn circus arts such as trapeze, juggling, clowning, and wire-walking, then perform daily for the public in the circus ring during the second week.

★★★★★Jon LawrenceI saw their young acrobats at the Magic House. Very impressive!!! Fun to watch.
★★★★★Stuart KeatingMy kid is in his third season at Circus Harmony and I enjoy it so much I signed up for adult aerial classes, which have proved to be some of the most difficult exercise I have ever done--and I have completed two ironman triathlons. Great community, great instructors, great classes, great mission!
★★★★★Wren IlvarsonnMy daughter has been attending classes and camps at Circus Harmony for over 5 years. She has enjoyed learning circus skills and making friends with other students. The instructors are amazing. The classes are fun and engaging. My daughter has not only learned various athletic skills but also cooperation and creativity at Circus Harmony. While the pandemic added a new challenge, I have appreciated all of the efforts Circus Harmony has taken to mitigate Covid spread. My daughter has taken classes throughout the pandemic and I am thankful that she was able to continue an activity she loves.
★Amanda QuesadaI think the people teaching are amazing. But the circus is horribly run. DO NOT DONATE to this circus unless they change management. Jessica Hentoff is a terrible Executive Director who abuses the people who work for her and tries to get out of paying coaches/contractors as little as possible. How can we possible trust our children with a person who abuses others? The point of circus is to build up others, but Jessica could not care less about anyone other than herself. I also have second-hand evidence of a toxic working environment--petty comments, lousy management experience, and horrible leader. St. Louis needs a different organization to represented circus in St Louis, please step up. Your leadership is needed.
★★★★★Olivia YTCame over from Kansas city to see the performance and my good friend Dr. Jeffrey Carter who led the band and collaborated with one of his students to compose the music. What an incredible group of youngsters. Watch out for flying children. These kids are gonna soar!
