Why Now
Modern technology is overstimulating. Modern life is overwhelming. Virtually everyone living in a modern, industrialized nation is being constantly bombarded with too much information and stimulation. Our time in front of screens is literally killing us by keeping us in a constant, low level bath of stress hormones.
Why Circus
Modern research tells us that the brain is most readily able to build new neural pathways when both hemispheres of the brain are engaged in a meditative brainwave pattern. Circus arts stimulate this cross communication between brain hemispheres while inducing the correct meditative brainwave state for optimal training of neural pathways.
