Cyr Wheel Classes at Aerial Cirque Over Denver
Join us for cyr wheel Denver! Nicole, a NECCA (New England Center for Circus Art) graduate teaches this fun and unique fitness class
What is Cyr Wheel?
Cyr wheel is also known as the roue Cyr, mono wheel, or simple wheel. Daniel Cyr, a Canadian circus performer, invented this unique athletic art. It resembles a giant hula hoop and is made out of steel or aluminum. Students stand inside the wheel and spin, roll, leap, and glide across the floor! Cyr wheel strengthens your core, posture, and improves balance. Anyone can do it!
Class Structure at Aerial Cirque Over Denver
In this cyr wheel Denver class, students learn the basic fundamentals of cyrwheel movement. You’ll receive a lot of individual attention due to small class size (max 4 students). Students will first learn the waltz. To waltz, the student rotates 360 in a continuous circle pattern, which resembles the waltz dance. Students also learn a variety of manipulation skills that demonstrate the three movement styles of a cyr wheel. An example is the orbit. To orbit, the student remains in one spot and spins the cyr wheel around them in 180 increments. Usually, cyr wheel is done barefoot. However, indoor soft-sole shoe are also ok. You do not need previous experience to take this class!
Why 8 week sessions? We teach in a progressive manner where student’s learn more, and quicker, with a group of peers! Drop in classes are difficult to maintain an appropriate curriculum that is new and challenging for everyone as there can be different people in class every week with this policy.

Nicole Londraville
Nicole was working as a scientist in the Boston area when she took her first aerial class in 2012. She was instantly hooked and began dreaming of running away and joining the circus. For the next five years, Nicole worked in Biotech by day and trained circus nightly. In 2017, she was accepted into the New England Center for Circus Art’s (NECCA) Protrack Program. Without hesitation, she moved to Vermont with her husband, dog, and two cats. There she spent two years training circus full time under NECCA’s world-class coaches. Nicole graduated in June 2019 with a major in aerial rope and minor in cyr wheel. She then moved to Denver and teaches both aerial and cyr wheel!

“I have been taking cyr wheel lessons here for about 6 months and absolutely love it. The gym is super clean and organized, Nicole has been so helpful in giving me a great foundation for spinning, and the staff is extremely clear and communicative. I would really recommend Aerial Cirque Over Denver for anyone looking to get into circus arts.”
