Balance is not just a physical skill: it is the ability of a team to stay steady even when the ground shifts beneath its feet. This is the idea behind Circus, one of our most original and physical experiential formats, where circus arts meet technology to create a genuinely surprising team building experience. Participants step out of their comfort zone, try skills they have never practiced before, and discover that true balance is built together.
What Circus is all about
Circus is an experiential path that combines traditional circus arts — rolla bola, tightrope walking, juggling — with tech-based challenges using Wii Fit consoles and gyroscopic tablets. The result is an explosive mix of physical skill, focus and fun, guided step by step by professional circus artists who teach techniques safely and make sure every participant, regardless of starting skill level, can take part and enjoy the challenge.
Teams work together throughout the activity, tackling stations and challenges as a group, accumulating points that lead to a final ranking and award ceremony. It is not a solo performance: every result depends on how well the team supports, encourages and coordinates with each other.
Why it works as a corporate metaphor
Circus arts are a powerful metaphor for company life. Staying on a tightrope or balancing on a rolla bola requires concentration, trust and the ability to adjust quickly — exactly the skills that make a team effective under pressure. By mixing physical and digital challenges, Circus keeps engagement high for every kind of participant, including those who prefer tech-based tasks over purely physical ones.
This blend of formats also sends a clear message: balance is not only physical, it is mental and collective. Teams that communicate well, distribute roles and support one another consistently perform better, both on the circus floor and in daily business challenges.
Who it’s for and how we organize it
Circus is ideal for groups who want to dare and truly put themselves on the line. It works well for teams looking for a high-energy, hands-on experience that breaks routine and encourages participants to try something completely new together.
As part of our catalogue of 130+ original formats, developed over 22 years of experience and delivered from our Rome and Milan hubs, Circus can be tailored to different group sizes and objectives, always guided by professional circus artists trained to manage safety and engagement at every station.
Frequently asked questions
Do participants need any circus or acrobatic experience? No. Circus is designed for all skill levels: professional artists guide every activity step by step, so anyone can take part safely and confidently.
Is Circus a physical or a team activity? Both. Individual stations involve physical and tech-based challenges, but points are earned and combined as a team, making collaboration essential to the final result.
What skills does Circus help develop? It strengthens balance, focus, trust and communication, while reinforcing the idea that a team’s real strength lies in mutual support, not individual performance.
Can Circus be adapted to different group sizes or venues? Yes. As with our other formats, Circus can be customized based on group size, available space and company goals, both in Rome, Milan or on location.
