Ryde Extreme Performers started for one main reason, there is a lot of talent on the Isle of Wight that does not get used, partly due to people believing it is not as good as mainland quality -
This is untrue, Ryde Extreme and its sister group Circus Island Community Project (the educational development side) have within it's ranks many performers that are on par or even exceeding other performers from any where around the world.

We run several types of courses all aimed at the Circus Industry: Individual coaching in specific skills is available, however group work is what we excel at, learning stilts, fire or the juggling skills like diabolo, devilstick, clubs, knife, axe and tomahawk throwing etc. is a good way to get healthy and develop your hand eye co-ordination, these skills can be used in Team Building exercises which we also run courses in.
