Free juggling kits for some Eastbourne residents

Working with the Devonshire West Big Local, Sweet Circus quickly launched their learn to juggle kits to help people with their health and mental wellbeing during. For those living in the Devonshire West area these kits are free, and there is free delivery elsewhere in Eastbourne.

Miz, director at Sweet Circus, said: “Juggling is the perfect lockdown activity.

“It is a gentle form of exercise which stimulates both the right and left brain, the result of which is the release of endorphins which lift moods and help us see things more positively. Juggling is beneficial to physical, mental and brain health, you need very little space, and it is an inexpensive pass time.”

In addition to the kits, Sweet Circus have produced a Learn to Juggle activity book, and are running free Zoom classes Tuesday and Thursday lunch times, including learn to juggle lunch break for all ages and abilities and the popular 50+ Virtual Circus.

Aside from Juggling tutorials, Sweet Circus have launched a variety of YouTube tutorials and activities with a whole range of circus inspired activities that you can follow along with at home, even if you don’t have any equipment.

Miz said: “Making circus accessible is a big part of our mission, and right now, we all need the lift and benefits of remaining active.

“Our online resources focus around equipment you can easily make at home and specific activities which engage both the body and the brain.”
