Open Source Arts

We are a group of performers and circus enthusiasts who meet regularly to practice and share our skills in like-minded company. We run weekly skill-shares on Tuesdays 6pm-9pm at Open Source Arts, Leeds, focusing on learning new skills together in supportive company.

We have experience in aerial arts (hoop, silks, trapeze), acrobalance, acro yoga, flexibility, manipulation, hula, juggling, contact manipulation, and movement based practices. We have an open inclusion policy for everybody who has previously practiced any of the above art-forms to a basic level, sufficient that they can train in their own right safely and share a space with others.

Come explore what is possible when we are in the inspirational setting of having plenty of equipment, lots of time, and loads of enthusiasm!

These sessions are free to attend – any donation to help us meet our costs is gratefully received.

***Please note: These sessions are not lessons – for those who would like to attend some introductory workshops or classes, please keep an eye on the OSA events page. If you don’t see what you need, put in a request! We are happy to oblige***
