Caravan Circus
In this inspiring episode from the Caravan Week 2026 podcast, Adam Jarchovský (Head of Education at CIRQUEON and Caravan CTF trainer) sits down with William Borell to introduce Circus Playgrounds—a revolutionary, framework-based approach to creativity in the circus classroom.
Developed over the last two years alongside colleague Kateřina Kušáková and inspired by physical literacy, Circus Playgrounds shifts the focus from rigid skill progression to holistic personal development.
By using visual cue cards and structured environments ("possibility spaces"), trainers can spark endless creative solutions, engagement, and pride without relying on prescriptive teaching.

⌛️For the past five years, their research team has collaborated directly with over 100 disabled and non-disabled individuals to co-create groundbreaking solutions—from adapted circus props to multi-sensory teaching approaches.
As Jessica puts it, it’s not about separate accommodations; it’s about reshaping how we design activities so that diversity naturally enriches the entire community.

In this highlight from Episode 1 of Caravan Week 2026, Will Borrell is joined by Léana Valentini, a circus teacher and researcher currently conducting her doctoral research with the University of Bordeaux and youth circus school Le Lido in Toulouse.
They dive into how youth circus spaces create unique environments for human connection, autonomy, and social growth—far beyond just learning circus techniques.
As Léana puts it: "Go for research. Research can be so many things and we all have it in ourselves really!"
