“My daughter has been training with Nottingham Circus Arts (formerly Tuyo Circus Arts) for over a year now and I can't praise them enough. The instructors are so supportive and encouraging, and their level of knowledge across so many types of equipment is amazing. They genuinely want everyone to achieve their best and have fun. I love seeing the pride in the instructors' faces when they watch their students achieve new skills. Sara, Gareth, Vivienne and all the team are fantastic.”
